This Therapist:

Believes that brief or long- term psychotherapy is a joint process. She will work together with you to find solutions to the issues which brought you into treatment.

She will seek to learn about how your past experiences may have affected your current circumstances. She will ask what has and has not worked to solve your problems in the past. What has once worked to improve a difficult circumstance may no longer be effective. With this therapist you will find new and productive pathways to cope with your present concerns.
