Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
After earning my Ph.D. in clinical psychology at University of Connecticut in 1984, I taught psychology and worked at a psychiatric hospital and community mental health center. I also started private practice during this time, in 1987, and have been practicing here in Nashua since then.
What is your primary product or service?
I have a general practice of clinical psychology, but a special interest in relationship problems including working with couples (premarital and marriage counseling). Another area of particular interest is adult life stage development and adjustment concerns. This may also include helping individuals with problems of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and problematic habits and behavioral addictions.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
I maintain a small, private practice. I personally talk to all potential clients, and manage their appointments and any records involved. There are No separate intake clinicians, scheduling clerks, records office workers, and so on, which for some people adds a greater sense of privacy and comfort making the most use of the counseling services. Yet at the same time I bring over twenty-five years of post-doctoral experience.
What type of payments do you accept?
I accept private payment (cash, check, MC/Visa/Discover), Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flex Spending cards, and participate in many health insurance plans. For insurance plans I am able to bill directly for mental health care services. Please call with any questions as insurance information does change frequently.
Which areas do you service?
My clients come from a rather large arc centering on Nashua. That area includes Milford and as far West as Peterborough, as far North as Concord and surrounding communities such as Bow, East to Exeter, Windham, Londonderry ... and well down into Massachusetts. So many of my clients work in Massachusetts and live in New Hampshire, and find my Nashua location convenient.
What is the best compliment anyone can give you?
The best compliments from my clients are that they felt comfortable, found it easy to be open about what really concerns them, and felt understood and not judged.
What is your favorite quote or Bible verse?
I'd say the following are my favorite quotes:
"It is easier to fight for one's principles than to live up to them." (Alfred Adler)
"If men define situations as real, they are real in their consequences." (W. I. Thomas)
"For every problem, there is one solution which is simple, neat and wrong." ( Henry Louis Mencken)
"Believe nothing merely because you have been told it.... Do not believe what your teacher tells you merely out of respect for the teacher. But whatsoever, after due examination and analysis, you find to be kind, conducive to the good, the benefit, the welfare of all beings--that doctrine believe and cling to, and take it as your guide." (Buddha, about 623-543 BC)
"You should honour even the enemy in your friend. In your friend you should possess your best enemy. Your heart should feel closest to him when you oppose him." (Friedrich Nietzsche)
"Your joy is your sorrow unmasked.
And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears.
And how else can it be?
The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.
Is not the cup that holds your wine the very cup that was burned in the potter's oven?
And is not the lute that soothes your spirit, the very wood that was hollowed with knives?
When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy.
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
Some of you say, "Joy is greater thar sorrow," and others say, "Nay, sorrow is the greater."
But I say unto you, they are inseparable.
Together they come, and when one sits, alone with you at your board, remember that the other is asleep upon your bed.
Verily you are suspended like scales between your sorrow and your joy.
Only when you are empty are you at standstill and balanced.
When the treasure-keeper lifts you to weigh his gold and his silver, needs must your joy or your sorrow rise or fall." (On Joy and Sorrow, Kahlil Gibran)
