A higher percentage of creative people struggle with addiction, because they just don't know when to quit! Creatives frequently have low self-esteem, often despite proven success. Using cognitive ( CBT) techniques and psychodynamic methods (how events from the past affect the present) I use a pragmatic, individualized approach. I include solution-focused and music/art therapy to help the client gain insight and put the insight to work to achieve realistic goals.

Lauralee Fuhrmann LCSW. Approach is client-centered, strengths-based. It can be difficult to open-up and talk about life-stressors to a stranger.
