Judi Harriet Lirman
I am a skilled, empathetic therapist who is committed to providing you with support, insight, and practical tools. You have more strengths and fewer weaknesses than you realize. Working together, we explore you, letting you see yourself as you really are and always have been - worthwhile and loveable. You can learn and move forward. Seeing a licensed therapist often provides new ways to work through the issues and fears holding you back. No matter the obstacles, we will find solutions together. My goal is to help you feel comfortable in your own skin and make wise decisions for your life. We disarm obstacles and implement techniques building confidence, competency, comfort, and trust in yourself. "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain." Vivian Green

First session
Our first session is mostly getting to know you and what you feel is not going as well or easy as you want. We will talk and share your opinions of what you need, what you have tried, and anything else you feel it is important to share with me. I am also in the session to share information about my background and my points of view. I have been in private practice since 1983. During these 40 plus years I have worked with many clients with a lot of different issues and approaches. My approach is very eclectic. I choose how I help clients according to their needs. I seem to draw from CBT, psychodynamic, behavioral, Rogerian (reflective), family systems, and more. I am also very collaborative with my clients. It is your life we will be talking about, and you deserve to make your own decisions. Even if you are not totally aware or in touch with it, you are the one who has been present the whole time.
Strengths
As I have mentioned, I have worked on with clients on many different issues. Here are a few of my specialties: Self-esteem and confidence, Parenting and Co-parenting, Adult ADHD/ADD, Depression, Aniety, Codependency, and Abuses.
Ideal clients
I see adults, adolescents, individuals, and couples. My ideal clients are those who are willing to explore themselves, move forward, and feel comfortable in their own skin.
