My ideal client is pretty tired of being 'stuck' in painful, repetitive, unproductive emotional traps, expects organised, focussed, evidence-informed, gentle, respectful care. I keep a small private practice (never more than 2-4 clients/week) where you can expect compassion, clarity, humour and a safe, respectful space to clarify your values, test your limits and move through impasse, using cognitive-behavioral interventions where appropriate. Complete the intake assessment, and you’ll get evidence-informed, clear statements on what changes you can expect, by when. Ambivalent ? Mistrustful? Discouraged? Come as you are.
I’m a clinical psychologist with 4 decades of experience with evidence- informed treatments for anxiety and mood disorders, PTSD with/without substance use disorders and disorders of attachment. I specialize in personalizing research-informed treatment protocols by collaboratively tracking your mental health ‘vital signs’, session-by-session.
Everyone makes sense, has good reasons for their thoughts, feeling and actions. We’ve come a long way as a profession. Get in touch. Give me a call - no charge for first contacts.
