Treatment Approach
The most important aspect of psychotherapy is the relationship with your therapist. Trust and confidence in the therapist lays the foundation for the work that will be done. Dr. Lunceford’s patients report feeling respected and cared about by her and they trust that she will help them find solutions and strategies that will work for them.
