| Additional Comments: |
My name is Gary Glickman, and I’m a California-licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT). I help people move from painful crisis and long-term frustration into more stable, safe times when they can begin the hard but gratifying work of making healthy, empowering changes to their relationships -- with themselves and others. As a couples counselor, my specialty is in pre-commitment counseling. My practice is gay and lesbian affirmative. I use mainstream counseling and coaching techniques to help you achieve mastery with your own choices, to transform crisis, frustration and emotional pain into a sense of meaning, through helping people empower themselves and heal from the long term effects of trauma:
• Painful styles of relationships • depression • anxiety • fear • low self-esteem • inability to say 'No!' • inability to say "Yes!" |
