Stephen Risi, LICSW

You are the expert on you. I introduce you to a variety of skills, techniques, resources, strategies, & options that will help you take/regain control of your life by making positive changes that will assist you to achieve your goals. I take a solution focused approach (whatever works we use) and may a variety of treatment approaches.

I work with adults through the elderly. I work with depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, lack of assertiveness, life transitions, and chronic pain management, among others. 
 
My treatment approach is to get to know the person and explore what they hope the therapy outcome will produce. My experience with people over many years ( I have been licensed since 1994) is that the optimal approach is a combination of talk and skills. Clients leave the first session with at least one skill they can practice and use immediately.
