Getting to know Daniel Minuchin

I have been a licensed marriage and family therapist for about 40 years, and hold a Masters in Counseling Psychology from Antioch University. I work with individuals facing a wide range of issues that bring people into therapy, from anxiety and depression to career questions and relationship concerns. As a family therapist, much of my work is with couples-both married and unmarried. I support people dealing with small conflicts as well as those working on how to divorce in a healthy way. I also work with families who come in with children experiencing various challenges, from behavior issues, parent/child conflict, and school problems to anxiety and depression. I also work with families where the issues and conflicts occur in adults. I am an active and relational therapist. My background is as a structural family therapist, but my approach is integrative and tailored to the individual client I am seeing. As a family therapist, I am attentive to the context of people’s lives. And I focus on areas of strength as well as areas of difficulty. Currently, I am seeing everyone through telehealth on Zoom. I offer a sliding scale to make therapy accessible. I have some evening and weekend hours. I am in network for most major insurance companies.

I chose this Psychotherapist only because of good reviews. Don't be fooled! Avoid booking him by all means! During first session, all I did was speak, described my problem in so many details! No advice, help, recommendation, future treatment was provided. Session was shorter by 10 mins too (as he was late and finished earlier). Psychotherapist suggested having a Zoom call at the same time this week. I agreed. He forgot about it, as no Zoom details were sent. I reminded myself about it an hour before the appointment. And then again at the time, when it was supposed to have begun. 5 mins past the agreed time he finally sent zoom details, but joined the call himself with a 10 min delay. He was eating and pressed exit button. He rejoined a couple of mins later. Since I was the one to speak last time, I expected him to do it this time. He didn't. He said I know about the problem and that what I tried didn't help. NO HELP!!! WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!!! AVOID MY ALL MEANS!!!
