Lawrence Fink

My communication style

I create a trusting environment using active listening and curiosity to better enable you to open up and explore yourself. I tend to be accepting and understanding but direct in my communication to help bring new perspectives that enable you to work through your issues.

My journey to mental healthcare

I eventually decided to become a therapist because I preferred working with people more than fundraising and management. I like connecting with people and being a fellow traveler in this world, and feel it is a privilege to help people find their authentic selves and inner peace.

My goals for you

Goals are always an important part of therapy but can often be a distraction if you only see the forest and not the trees. Developing goals creates a mutual understanding of direction and desired outcomes, along with accountability to move forward. Flexibility and fluidity are essential as self-discovery occurs.

Our first session

The first session is an intake assessment, which includes a brief overview of current issues along with your history and background. This creates a foundation for treatment. The first session also helps ensure you feel comfortable with the intangibles of our relationship, including my personality, communication style, and overall chemistry.
