I am an LMFT with a PhD in Clinical Psychology who has worked in the field for most of my adult life, in a variety of settings (psychiatric hospital, residential treatment centers, schools, homes, and outpatient clinics), with people whose ages ranged from 6 to 92. Because their problems also varied greatly, I became adept at individualizing care.
