Thomas E. Johnson, LCSW	Last Updated: 08/22/2011




	I provide focused, inter-active psychotherapy to individuals and couples. I have been in practice for 30 years and have varied experience with the full array of emotional and inter-personal conflicts that many people suffer with. I work with you to achieve optimal functioning based on the insight derived frm our work together. In my couple's treatment I follow the John Gottman Research-Based approach to relationship problems. These are tried and true techniques based on many years of research into these methods. My practice is also sensitive to the unigue problems associated with aging and gay lifestyles. I also have experience in geriatric care management and can advise and provide appropriate referrals regarding entitelements as well as veterans benefits.
