A number of low cost support groups are sponsored by my practice and held at my location; Adult Autism, Chronic Pain, Grief, and Bibliotherapy – look at the ‘Group’ section for further details.

Talk Therapy is the primary means of our working together, but several other cutting-edge methods are offered which improve your outcomes, reduce your time in therapy, and make therapy more effective and pleasant; Hypnosis, Mind/Body Techniques, Journaling/Narrative Technique, Transformative Art, Bibliotherapy (as well as Film and Poetry), Play Therapy, Psychodrama Technique, Focusing, among many other creative techniques. Reiki, a Japanese healing art, can be employed separately, as a relaxation device for those experiencing anxiety or wishing to learn more about how such ways can reduce life friction. These techniques are optional and you will always be in control of how we design your wellness plan together.  There is an art studio within Tinker Psychotherapy, so art is always accessible.
