I tried therapy before and it didn't work.  Why should I try again?

Sometimes clients and the therapist do not connect, its perfectly normal, this is called the therapeutic relationship.  Also, the modality of the therapy in which the therapist uses might make a difference.

I work business hours. Do you see clients non-traditional hours?

Evening and weekend appointments are available in order to accommodate clients who are unable to attend sessions during traditional business hours.
