Our therapists

Fit matters more than credentials. We have both.

The therapeutic relationship is the single strongest predictor of outcome in the research, stronger than the method, stronger than the letters after anyone's name. So read these properly, pick whoever you would actually want to talk to, and tell us if the first match is not right.
