Ken McNeill
Lost in a sea of therapy choices? I don't blame you. There's a lot of the same out there. Therapy can often become slow and repetitive, general and fuzzy. That's why I specialize in ISTDP, Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy. ISTDP was developed to help you get to the root cause of your difficulties as swiftly as possible, so you can start moving forward sooner.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
No lengthy intakes: From the very first session, we'll hone in on the core of your difficulty in a time-limited framework of up to 12 sessions. Why wait longer for positive change?
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Have you been to therapy before but were left underwhelmed? Maybe you are looking for a more dynamic experience.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
Maybe you've been to therapy before but were left underwhelmed. Maybe you are seeking palpable and sustainable change? Maybe you'd rather take the direct route than the scenic route even if it's more challenging and sometimes out of your comfort zone. Maybe your body has been telling you something but you're not sure what it is. If so, I am ready to help.

Ken is very adept at recognizing root causes and explaining the relevance of emotional dynamics. He has a way of validating my experience while at the same time being direct. His observations challenge me to stay with, actually feel and unpack my emotions instead of relying on intellectualizing the experiences I bring to the table.
