I received a PhD in Counseling Psychology in 1988. My clinical experience has included work in psychiatric hospitals, managed care agencies and private practice. I see adults individually and in marriage/relationship counseling. My clients have, in addition to other problems, presented with depression, anxiety, interpersonal issues, stress, mid and later life adjustment, grief, life plan development, and self esteem.
I believe counseling happens best on a level playing field. The participants share ideas and discover solutions. There is cooperation, synergy and mutuality of purpose. We begin by mapping what is causing your problem, or areas you want to enhance in your life. Next, we look at psychological and behavioral change. What changes are indicated and how are they best achieved? This part is very difficult on our own, especially if we are dealing with problems. Finally, we look at how to establish and maintain change .
If you would like us to talk, please proceed with an appointment. I look forward to hearing from you. I check messages in the morning and evening. I will respond within 24 hours. Thanks...

I have been working with Dr. Treese for a year and our therapist / client relationship has grown greatly. I have learned much about myself and have made positive changes in my thinking and behavior. I am much more in tune with my authentic self and find it easier and safer to show that side of me. This is helping me to build the type of relationships I have always wanted. I trust him deeply. His approach is not clinical as I have experienced with past therapists. He is honest, he has mastered his craft and we work together in an equal partnership. It feels good to be accepted and seen. I highly recommend his services.

Dr. Treese has been the best part of my healing journey because I finally feel genuinely supported. I have been to many different therapists over the years, but I have made the most progress with Dr. Treese than I have with others. I mostly appreciated how I didn’t leave my sessions feeling like he just listened to me talk, he asked thought provoking questions, gave me genuine feedback, and made me feel safe in such a vulnerable time. He’s very passionate about helping others and it really shows.

I couldn't ask for a better therapist or experience with Better Help. Dr. Treese has a wealth of relevant knowledge that he is able to perfectly apply to our meaningful conversations.

I can honestly say I couldn't have found my new footing with out him. Thank you, Dr. Treese.
