We all tend to manage the ups and downs in life the best way we know how given our biological and social development and experiences.  Dr. Goldman knows that we all learn skills and expectations which are adaptive when learned, but may be limiting in new situations, and he recognizes our skills and abilities as strengths we can build upon.  He believes that within the safety of a supportive and confidential psychotherapy relationship we can examine and learn to change the beliefs and behaviors we have acquired which are not serving us as well as we would like.  He is focused on helping clients identify their own goals and will assist their growth through brief, strength-based, goal-oriented individual, couples and family therapy.
