Let’s Do What Works.

Therapy is evolving rapidly, with increasingly powerful improvements emerging all the time, especially in the areas of anxiety, depression, trauma and relationships. It means that therapists need to evolve, too. With warmth, active engagement, depth, and down-to-earth practicality, we are devoted to bringing you the most useful therapy interventions available today, and we hold ourselves to the highest standards of empirically-supported quality of care.

You really can get there from here.

“Dan is one of the most thoughtful, compassionate, analytic and creative thinkers I’ve come to know.”

“After two of the worst years of my life, I just wanted to give up. Kirsten’s respectful attitude and gentle probing helped me to revalue myself, and I now have a more positive outlook. I am a changed person and now I can get on with enjoying my life…”

“Warmth and insight seem to be second nature to Yael…”

“Kirsten, it was great working with you. Thank you for listening so well to me. I really appreciated your insights. They made me say ‘Hey, I haven’t thought about that before. I haven’t looked at it that way before…”

“I went to traditional counselors for my anxiety management, and none of them had ever been able to help me understand my anxiety, but Tim did…”

“Yael’s focus on understanding her client’s view of the world and dedication to guiding them to achieve their goals serves them well…”
