About Dr. Fischer
 
 
"A good listener helps us overhear ourselves."                   
                                                                          ~Yahia Lababidi (b. 1973)
 
 
I strive for excellence in providing psychotherapy services to the best of my ability by continually educating myself and keeping informed of the latest developments in the field of psychology and psychotherapy.  I always provide strict confidentiality and privacy for all my patients and act in the best interest of the patient in accordance with the American Psychological Association ethical principles and code of conduct.
 
What is unique about my practice is that I bring a wealth of personal experiences as an individual with a hearing loss.  Having this challenge grounds me to be a more sensitive and caring person with an enhanced understanding of anyone who steps into my office.
