Paul Ruchames

Since my practice began 15 years ago my commitment for helping others hasn`t diminished. I will always work with the highest regard for ethics and be current with best practices.

I help people with alcohol and drug problems, anxiety, depression and marital counseling. My therapy is based in caring and listening and a commitment to helping you find solutions and behavioral change as soon as possible. Insight is invaluable but only if it eventually leads to relief and positive change for you.

My approach combines methods from addiction counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy and gestalt therapy and is based in a passion for helping others and the establishment and maintenance of a supportive therapeutic relationship.

You will be able to fully express your concerns within a non-judgmental, therapeutic environment. You will feel understood by me and will appreciate my going at a pace that is tolerable to you and respectful of your culture. You will always feel respected and supported even when difficult truths need to be faced. My goa is to increase self- awareness and promote positive change.
