Therapy. Psychotherapy, in general statements, varies depending on the personalities and skills of the counselor and patient. Each particular problem you are experiencing and hope to discuss may be addressed using different methods. Psychotherapy is not like a medical doctor visit. Instead, it calls for a very active effort on your part. In order for the therapy to be most successful, you will have to work on things we talk about both during our sessions and at home. Frequency of visits will be addressed in the individual session. As you progress, the frequency of visits may change. If you want to decrease the frequency of appointments or feel ready to terminate therapy, we can discuss accordingly. Psychotherapy can have benefits and risks. Since therapy often involves discussing unpleasant aspects of your life, you may experience uncomfortable feelings like sadness, guilt, anger, frustration, loneliness, and helplessness. On the other hand, psychotherapy has also been shown to have many benefits. Therapy often leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, and significant reductions in feelings of distress. But there are no guarantees of what you will experience. Typically, the more invested you are in therapy, the better the outcome. This section contains important information about my professional services and business policies.

Therapy. Therapy is not easily described in general statements. It varies depending on the personalities of the therapist and patient and the particular problems you are experiencing. There are many different methods that may be used to deal with the problems you hope to address in therapy. Approaches to treatment may include individual, family and/or group therapy. Therapy is not like a medical doctor visit. Instead, it calls for a very active effort on your part. In order for the therapy to be most successful, you will need to work on things both during your therapy sessions and outside of therapy (e.g. at work school and/or home). The initial focus of therapy is on understanding the thoughts, feelings and life situations that are of concern to you. Therapy has many potential benefits. Therapy often leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, improved self-awareness and significant reductions in feelings of distress. Therapy also has risks. Since therapy often involves discussing unpleasant aspects of your life, you may experience uncomfortable feelings such as sadness, guilt, anger frustration, anxiety and helplessness. It is important to recognize that these feelings may be natural and normal and are an important part of the therapy process. Other risks of therapy include recalling unpleasant events, facing unpleasant thoughts and beliefs and a change in your desire to maintain certain relationships. Therapy can become a place where major life decisions are sometimes made including decisions involving separation within families, development of other types of relationships, changing employment settings and changing lifestyles. Although therapy is expected to be helpful there is no guarantee that therapy will accomplish your desired goals. Goals for therapy are determined within the first few sessions and are periodically reviewed and refined. Termination occurs when both the therapist and the client mutually agree that the goals have been satisfactorily addressed or there is some other reason to terminate. You have the right to terminate therapy at any time but I encourage you to discuss your concerns with me for at least one session before termination. You have the right to seek a second opinion from another mental health professional. Referral to other professionals, if requested or indicated, will be made at any time. Psychologists are often asked by other health and mental health professionals to administer a battery of psychological tests...
