Every therapist on this page is going to tell you that he or she will make your life better, and their qualifications. To save time, assume that's true for me as well. You probably what to know about fees. You can go to my profile or website to see a list of insurances. If I don't take your insurance and you're still interested in working with me, I charge: Sessions 1-4 $50.00, sessions 5 and above, $80.00. To learn more about me and my approach, either go to my profile or my website: www.0to10.net.

I practice solution focused brief therapy. This model is focused on helping you think about what you want to be different and better in your life. This frees you up to explore alternative (and more useful) ways of thinking, feeling and acting. For further information on my approach, visit www.0to10.net/Therapy.

Is brief therapy effective? The prestigious "Handbook of Psychotherapy and Behavior Change" states, "Comparative studies of brief psychotherapy offer little evidence of differences between time-limited and unlimited therapy." You will accomplish as much with a brief therapist as you would with a long-term therapist.
