Thanks for visiting my website. As a person faced with the task of finding a therapist, your work can be daunting. The good news is you have the power to decide who you will work with and for how long. As a therapist, I always remember and respect this fact.
What is effective psychotherapy?
I believe effective psychotherapy requires one key element, without which progress slows and frustration builds. In order for therapy to be effective, you must feel comfortable. If you feel comfortable in therapy, then the possibility for change increases. I am dedicated to what I do and am committed to helping you find and achieve your goals in an environment of respect and comfort.
With this perspective in mind, I work with people as they face some of their greatest challenges. I help people look at aspects of their lives, that in the past, they could not. Perhaps my greatest compliment was, "Aaron you have an infectious humanness." I believe that humanness, or the ability to have real and meaningful conversations, creates effective therapy. This is why I do not “treat patients", but instead work with people.
