Ernest A. McCoy has an Ed.S.
in Psychological Counseling, an MSW in Psychiatric Social Work,
and over 30 years' experience as a therapist. A Licensed Clinical
Social Worker and Certified Substance Abuse Counselor, he is
also a consultant and trainer for the Gestalt Educational International
Network in Frankfurt, Germany. He specializes in adolescent
issues, alcohol and other drug addictions, separation and individuation
issues, attention deficit, Asperger's disorder, oppositional defiance,
multicultural issues, and basic family issues. He works with
adults, adolescents, couples, and families.
Drawing on his training in Gestalt
psychotherapy and EMDR,
McCoy takes the approach that therapy is a type of personal
growth. By helping his clients examine what they are doing to
themselves and what are they are doing to others, he helps them
learn how to take better care of themselves, how to be kinder
to themselves and, as a consequence, kinder to others. “We
all have strengths and limitations,” McCoy says. “What
may be a limitation in one situation may actually be a strength
in another situation and vice versa.”
The basic goal of Ernest's approach is to assist you in learning
to " Be Good to Yourself!"
