If you feel that you are not functioning as well as you'd like to or are not working up to your full potential, therapy can help! I use a cognitive behavioral approach, and behavior modification to help clients achieve their goals. I work with kids as young as 3 up through adults. My innovative and unconventional approach makes therapy fun and unintimidating. I work closely with schools and doctors to provide the best treatment possible.

As you seek help for yourself or someone you care about; I'm here to help. Together, we can make your life easier. Whether overwhelmed, navigating challenges or positioning for a promotion -- I will stay with you as we find your way through.

One of the factors that makes every life worth living is being present and engaged with the world around you and with the people who know you deeply. Patterns can evolve and circumstances may arise which limit our engagement. I believe that it is possible to rejuvenate any life, regardless of the challenges faced from the doctor's office to the corporate office and from middle school to middle age and beyond.

Together we will identify what leads you to want to meet with a therapist, what you hope to accomplish in those meetings, and steps to achieve your goals. Finding the right words to describe the situation you are in and the feelings you hold occurs more readily when there is time set aside for those conversations, when judgment is suspended, and where comfort is pervasive. I try to create with you all the ingredients to accomplish those goals.

I specialize in individual psychotherapy for children and adolescents utilizing sports metaphors, technology, and social media. I also work individually with adults. I believe that a trusting relationship between the therapist and client is the catalyst for positive change. I attempt to cultivate this trust by making every effort to engage clients by first getting to know them and their needs. I believe that for change to occur for clients, they need to trust that their therapist is trustworthy, sincere, and supportive. My therapeutic approach is eclectic in nature, but focuses on cognitive behavioral, humanistic, and narrative approaches.

As a couple and family therapist, I have had the privilege of listening to clients' stories and witnessing change happen in the room. I believe people possess inherent strengths that give them the ability to successfully overcome their toughest struggles. I also recognize the strength and courage it takes to reach out for help; that's why I work from a collaborative and strength-based approach. I see couples, individuals, and families for a wide range of concerns and I am LGBTQ+ affirming. I utilize empirically supported treatment methods, tailored to the needs of each client, in order to identify solutions and achieve your goals.

I feel privileged to work as a psychotherapist. I realize it is a challenge for many to take that first step toward a healing journey, and I genuinely appreciate all the delicacy of that moment. I conceptualize each and every session with this level of conscientiousness and acceptance. Instilling a sense of trust to handle the most complex and sensitive issues with compassion, professionalism and competency is my clinical mission statement. My clients and I take a collaborate approach to healing, connecting in a depth driven and nonjudgmental level.

Starting therapy is hard and it is important to find someone you trust and feel comfortable with. If you are struggling with anxiety, trauma, or identity/relationship issues I would love to talk with you. I have extensive experience in working with mental health concerns related to these areas, and more, and I integrate a variety of approaches and techniques into my work as a means of promoting growth and change. Therapy might not be a place for quick fixes but it can lead to lasting change. I offer free phone consultations to talk and see if we might work well together.

Through exploring together, we discover insights that can facilitate active behavioral change, improved management of symptoms and a sense of well being. Treatment is specific and individual, evolving progressively from the unique juxtaposition of your needs and responses.

Therapy can be a safe way for individuals to address the underlying causes of their depression or anxiety. It is a way for individuals to develop internal tools and to gain support to manage their emotions that prevent them from living a happier and more meaningful life. Therapy can be a way to learn more about yourself and to set aside time to take care of yourself.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist working in private practice since 1998 and the co-founder of Lakeshore Psychology Group (click website). I provide individual psychotherapy to adults, adolescents, as well as treatment, for couples. I am very active in the therapy relationship and work to help clients uncover patterns, which become barriers to healthy relationships, career goals and personal happiness by learning more effective ways of coping and gaining greater insight into their problems. My clients describe me as accessible, authentic, empathic and supportive. My therapeutic approach is tailored to fit the unique needs and desires of each client

Being invited on the journey with the individuals I work with is an honor. I believe the relationship between the therapist and the client is the key to successful forward movement. Clients who want to work from a strengths based client centered approach will benefit from the work we will do together. I have a strong background in cognitive behavioral therapy but I believe in meeting the client where they are when they come in the door and work to provide a safe and empathic environment in which to assist the client in meeting their goals.

Clients motivated to change parts of themselves & their lives which are not working are exciting & challenging to work with. In particular, combat veterans & their families who are readjusting to stateside life are a specialty area of my practice. I am also interested in assisting persons who are seeking to live their lives with greater meaning & intention. I assist men who are seeking greater understanding of themselves and want to change their lives in community with other men through the Victories of the Heart program. Assisting people with grief & loss to find greater meaning & who want to live more abundantly are ideal.

I offer comfort, counsel and clarity to individuals and families facing medical illness, grief, loss and bereavement, and/or life transitions. Companioning folks on these journeys allows me to help them lessen their sense of isolation, to help identify and utilize their strengths, and to manage difficult emotions. Frequently clients are overwhelmed and need help sorting through stressful feelings and situations. Once that is accomplished, much progress is made. In life transitions, identifying and touching the emotions and then re-establishing a life-plan are often the primary goals, crafted to the client's unique needs.

What if we had the courage to look inside? What if we had the capacity to really see what was there and know that we could handle it, whatever it was? And what if we had the tools to apply that understanding with wisdom and compassion into our daily lives, our actions, and our relationships? This could make the difference between just stagnantly surviving and moving forward towards a more fulfilling existence.

Are you stressed? Is your body speaking to you with hard to understand symptoms? There's a tension that remains when a task is incomplete. This tension is not only related to the projects we have yet to complete but also relates to the internal tension from not speaking our truth. Dr. Weissman is known for treating those with anxiety-based stress conditions like PTSD and OCD. His skills in mind body medicine and clinical psychology allow him to rapidly assess the depth and breath of stress in a person's life and in their life and to co-create an individualized treatment plan leading to greater self-care & personal empowerment.
