Choosing a therapist can often seem overwhelming- knowing what to look for isn’t always obvious. I believe that each individual needs their own unique approach to address the events of the past, challenges in the present, or concerns about the future. While symptom reduction is a treatment goal, focus is also placed on a more fundamental level- understanding of oneself. And ultimately, the ability to live a fuller and more satisfying life. This work is collaborative. A strong working alliance between patient and therapist is widely regarded as the best predictor of therapeutic outcomes. Please feel free to contact me for a free consultation.

At times, life can be difficult when we are thrown that unexpected curveball. Many of us can sometimes feel stuck, alone and think the rest of the world is passing us by. As a Psychotherapist and Social Worker, I provide psychotherapy that provides results and a sense of comfort. In a friendly and comfortable environment, Peter addresses such areas as depression, stress, anxiety, trauma, anger management and self-esteem. Peter believes that our existing reactions and struggles derive from issues that are unresolved from our past. Peter further believes a comfortable rapport is essential in order for therapy to be beneficial. Peter also provides highly supportive clinical supervision to graduate students and practitioners.
