Denise Schonwald helped my daughter navigate through a very difficult family law situation. Denise developed such a rapport with my daughter that she still asks for sessions from time to time.

Individual Counseling
Many clients prefer to work individually with a psychologist on issues of personal growth or alleviating distress. This approach utilizes the interpersonal relationship to help clients in problems of living, with the aim of increasing the individual’s sense of well-being and reducing their sense of discomfort or unhappiness.
Couples Counseling
Conducted with couples in a marital or “significant other” relationship, the purpose is to assist the couple to work together as partners in communicating, expressing love, and solving the problems of daily life. The establishment of realistic expectations for the relationship and the development of effective conflict resolution skills are usually important goals.
Family Counseling
Sessions are typically conducted with the whole family or with various combinations of family members, depending on particular goals. The process helps identify and modify maladaptive interaction patterns as well as foster group communication and problem solving skills. Although family work is often helpful in addressing the problems of an individual family member, an important goal of this work often is to improve the overall climate so that family members can experience more ease in relating with one another

Many clients call my office daily in need of counseling as several are in crisis. While my schedule is often full offering no openings available, it has become necessary to create extra time in the evenings or on the weekends. Unfortunately, a day before scheduled appointments, my office receives numerous calls from clients canceling or simply not showing up for the session.
While I realize emergencies, meetings, business and school functions can happen and people do get sick, it has become very disruptive to the practice.
Effective immediately, all clients canceling within 24-hours or no shows will be charged $50.00. Payments must be made before another appointment will be offered.
Thank you for understanding.
