Our Services

At LIFE, we utilize a systemic approach to the issues and problems that bring clients through our doors. This allows us to coordinate services in the midst of providing confidential and effective therapy.

Testimonials

Here’s what a few of our clients had to say about our services:

“There were and still are times that I want to bail and find reasons why I should not be coming to you. I appreciate your being honest with me and the challenges that you place before me . . . I am encouraged by the changes I see in myself as a person, in my thought life, and also in my relationship.”

D.C.

“Thank you for not giving up on us and so generously working with us in such a loving, caring and supportive way. You’ve made a difference in all our lives and I am so grateful to you for that.”

M

“I will always be grateful for the insights and ‘revelations’ you helped me to understand and for the gentle no-nonsense way you helped me to grow. I hope you realize what a truly special talent you possess – and I have a sneaking suspicion you do. May you be given the peace and happiness you have helped so many others to find.”

W.B.

“A very special thanks to you, Al, for guiding me through my recent crisis and for giving me such a strong sense of the direction in which I need to focus my efforts. I wouldn’t have the courage to take this present risk had you not provided me with such a firm foundation and assured me that you’d be there when I need your assistance again.”

S.P.

“I was in the area and was drawn to the building where I spent endless hours working hard with you to find a peaceful place within myself. I want to thank you again for your help during the turbulence of my teenage years. I am now 24 and halfway through a Masters program. Our work together inspired me to pursue this career.”

Upcoming Events

Our weekly high school support group allows teenagers to connect with peers in a group setting of 8-10 other teens. Members process through their social, familial, interpersonal, and academic stresses magnified by this increasingly complex and complicated world. This process group allows teens to work through their anxiety and fears, and to develop coping skills in a safe, confidential setting led by two professional therapists.
