About

Drs. Pernitz's and Smith's work with you will be an “integrative approach”. That is, they will find the “best fit” for you in how you structure the counseling sessions. The approach will always include the “whole person” perspective (biological, psychological, social, and cultural), and solution-focused/strength-based approaches. Other therapeutic approaches Drs. Pernitz & Smith utilize include cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive therapy, psychodynamic therapy, motivational interviewing, and acceptance and commitment therapy.
