Therapists » Marriage & Family Therapist
My private practice is different than most therapy practices. First, my personal practice is small. My role as President of The Briggs Institute, Inc. allows me to limit my caseload size. This assures that my clients receive the attention they deserve. Second, my experience in academia places me at the forefront of the field of marriage and family therapy. This means that my practice is informed by scientific research that most private practice therapists can't easily access. View 4 Photos As a graduate of Purdue and Northwestern Universities, two of the most distinguished programs in the history of the field, I am fortunate to have learned from several of the best clinicians and researchers in the world. These training experiences play a critical role in distinguishing my practice. My areas of research and special clinical interest include marriage and health, research informed clinical practice, couple therapy, trauma, sex therapy, parenting issues, mood disorders, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. I practice an evidence-based approach to therapy that includes cognitive-behavioral and emotionally focused interventions.
