There are times when we experience stress that feels overwhelming, and, as a result, we have trouble moving forward. These feelings can be in response to a specific event. Other times, we can get into a long-standing routine where positive outcomes never seem to happen. It is essential to understand the underlying issues and develop more constructive approaches.

As a clinical psychologist with extensive practice experience, I have had an opportunity to use many of the above mentioned approaches. In addition, my work has appeared in a number of peer reviewed professional journals. Aside from the issue of technique, I believe that for any therapy approach to be successful it is essential that the client and I be able to establish an atmosphere of trust and cooperation. In my practice it is building this constructive working relationship that is the first order of business.

While there is certain necessary background information that is required I believe during this session, it is important that we begin to build the working relationship.
