I view the therapeutic process as a sacred alliance between the client and therapist where clients can access their inner strengths and promote change. I use CBT, educational, client-centered, and solution-focused therapies to assist in your processes. I accept clients where they are and tailor treatment to meet their individual needs.

Why am I limited to only two options? Christine Waldman is the real deal. If everyone were half as good at their job as she is, we would live in a much happier world.
