IS DR. MAY THE RIGHT THERAPIST FOR YOU?

 

On average, clients are recommended to visit with Dr. May for a brief amount of time. But by choice clients stay with Dr. May to expand on their development and success. Dr. May has the profound ability to work with people at different stages of their lives and she credits this ability to her own personal development journey.

 

Furthermore, to become certified in IMAGO counseling, she was required to sit in the experience of the client and explore her own familial relationships and marriage. IMAGO supports its therapists in “living the work that we teach.” By being committed to these developmental activities regularly, Dr. May remains connected to the needs and experiences of her clients, and she excels at making difficult concepts easy to understand.
