When we better understand the workings of our brains, we gain greater control over our lives, our futures, and our happiness. Dr. Raffle provides brain and mind-based, client-centered psychotherapy. In a caring, protective and accepting atmosphere, individuals feel empowered to explore their own pathways toward self-discovery, positive personal growth, and self-healing. Therapy works because it creates resiliency — the mental, emotional, and behavioral flexibility to successfully adjust to and cope with life's challenges and adversities. Psychotherapy is a safe, empathic, non-judgmental, and confidential environment in which you can comfortably explore your thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and sensations. The goal of psychotherapy is self-empowerment: Power to create change and improve the quality of your life. Power to make peace with past traumas and to accelerate your personal growth. Power to manage your anger and strengthen your coping skills. Power to resolve conflicts and to create more satisfying relationships. Power to break self-destructive patterns and develop self-confidence and self-acceptance. And the Power to make those conscious changes that will lead to a better and more meaningful life. Dr. Raffle also performs psychological, psychoeducational, and neuropsychological testing for children, adolescents, adults, and elderly patients. For children and adolescents, testing is needed for classroom accommodations, special education services, and accommodations on standardized testing (SAT, ACT, GRE, MCAT, LSAT, etc.). For adults, testing is used in forensic/legal cases, workplace accommodations, and Social Security Disability benefits. For elderly individuals, testing determines the presence and severity of dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease, and provides guidelines for caregivers.
