Please call me Billy! I am a clinical psychologist in telehealth private practice, with almost fifteen years' experience. My clients are often burdened by trauma, grief, and stress. They are wondering if it's even possible to feel better. In therapy, we approach this question thoughtfully and deeply. We don't shy away from the realities, and we trust the healing process to produce new life and energy for the struggle.
Although I love seeing clients in person, I am exclusively doing telehealth therapy these days (I'm happy to say more about that when we meet). My favorite therapeutic approach is “parts work”: discovering the different parts that make up the self, and helping them be seen and heard. This can lead to profound changes in the relationship to self and others.
I'm not rigid about the methods we use, so if "parts work" sounds too weird we can go a different way. I value flexibility and openness, and believe the therapy process should be unique to the needs of the individual. I look forward to hearing from you, and seeing how I may be of help!
