George Kayser, LMFT
I work with couples and individuals on relationships and sex. I see mental health as a deeply relational concept . I draw from systems theory and solution-focused brief therapy. I pay close attention to what’s already working and to the changes you want to see. I assume that change is already happening in some way. Above all, I want therapy to be an experience where you’re met with compassion and belief. We’ll start with your best hopes, which is to say what you’re really wanting from therapy, and I’ll stay focused on those hopes with you throughout the therapeutic process.
