Great to meet you!

SI QUIERES VER UN TERAPISTA QUE COMPRENDE TU CULTURA Y HABLA TU IDIOMA, YO PUEDO AYUDARTE! TAMBEN FALO PORTUGUES. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Counselor with 40 years of clinical experience! I have always been interested in clients' cultural backgrounds and am fluent in Spanish, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, French and German. Feel free to browse my website (www.phyllisgould.com) - I treat adults, children and adolescents of all ages.

My approach to therapy

I don't have one approach-I use different approaches with different clients because people are different. I believe that you are the expert in yourself and the people you know, and I am a consultant to you.

What you can expect from me

You can expect guidance and feedback from me. I will always be honest with you and tell you what I think, but it's up to you if you choose to follow my advice.
