Sidney W. Binks, III, PhD

Sid Binks & Associates offers both psychotherapy ( www.LGBTC.com/Sid ) and psychological/neuropsychological assessment (forensic) ( www.DrSidBinksandAssociates.com ). Psychotherapy: I use insight-oriented and cognitive behavioral approaches in treatment - depending upon the issue being addressed. I work to create a positive therapeutic relationship - taking care to create an environment that feels safe for clients so that they may explore, learn and heal. I feel privileged and honored to be involved in this process and see myself as an agent of change.
