I don't just see you as a bunch of symptoms or broken parts. I see you as a whole person who's been through some stuff. I've been through it, too. And I’ve got the personal and professional experience to help you recover. Together, we'll figure out the cycles you've got going on with your partner(s) and work to undo them so you can enjoy each other again. I use reparenting, parts work, mindfulness, and somatic techniques to help you learn how to identify and soothe your emotions. And, for the really tough stuff, we can use EMDR to reprocess and heal your past traumas. When we’re done, you’ll be nicer to yourself and feel more genuinely connected in relationships.

Dr. Boland has a general psychotherapy practice treating children, adolescents and adults since 1988. He specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Behavioral Family Psychotherapy and marital therapy. Patients come to Dr. Joseph Boland for treatment because he does far more than just listen to their problems, he provides clear, precise instructions and feedback. Dr. Boland is compassionate but also firm in his approach which has helped thousands of patients lead more happy and productive lives. Dr. Boland encourages his patients to audiotape their sessions so they can listen to the sessions again at home and take notes. He coaches them to develop skills by completing exercises between sessions. He does not believe in endless therapy that costs you a fortune but rather brief, educational and skills building to teach you the skills needed quickly so that you will no longer need psychotherapy. When parents bring in their children with child behavioral problems, ADHD, or school problems, Dr. Boland teaches specifically how to correct the behavior. Dr. Boland specializes in teaching self-discipline and self-control to impulsive children, anger management to angry children, and cooperative and compliant behavior to defiant children. Parents quickly learn how to make their children talk respectfully, follow directions, be responsible, and be honest. With couples, Dr. Boland teaches effective communication skills and conflict resolutions skills. Improving intimacy, closeness and mutual appreciation are common goals. Dr. Boland tries to get both partners to see themselves as part of the solution and gives both suggestions for improving the relationship.
