Therapy for Adults

Short-term developmental therapy, practical advice, and self-psychology therapies are common care aspects for adults. These empirically-based techniques are result- directed, and they  efficiently produce reliable results.  Successful outcomes may extend to couples therapy, conjoint family consultation, or career or business coaching.

Dynamic-Developmental Care is often the Treatment of Choice with Adults Who Present with:

  • Normal changes in their adult development that require changes in living, strategic changes in relationships,  and/or career change

  • outdated relationships that need to be re-invented or replaced

  • Depressed or anxious mood

  • Persistent worry and difficulty with confidence

Testimonials for Adult Therapy

“Dr. Schwarzbeck and I have worked together to redesign a life meaning based on personal master and passion…”

…Dr. S is like a trusted family friend who genuinely cares about the well-being of his clients.  But unlike many a trusted confidante, Dr. Schwarzbeck has years of experience working with leaders in the field, impressive educational credentials, and a proven track-record in ushering the successes of women, children, and families as they progress through life’s inevitable stages.  His  insight, counsel, and expertise have been invaluable. 

Like so many women, I found myself lost when we decided to end our 17-year marriage.  After choosing to be a stay-at-home mom, my self-esteem was at an all-time low; I felt disoriented and my skills were rusty at best.  Dr. Schwarzbeck and I have worked together to redesign a life of meaning based on personal mastery and passion.   We have spent the last several years establishing long-term goals, developing practical life skills, and charting the path to success.  With the help of Dr. Schwarzbeck’s clinical and coaching expertise, I was recently admitted to graduate school where I will learn to develop and implement research-based educational programs for underserved children in the U.S. and in developing nations.  Not only will this serve me well, but this will positively impact the lives of my two daughters as I model strength, character, perseverance, and accomplishment. –

Therapy for children

Strategies for care of Toddlers and Children are specifically designed to compliment their developmental stage and how physical, neurological, psychological, family, school and social facets line up. After accumulating these factors, Dr. Schwarzbeck implements techniques from different disciplines for effective and comprehensive care.  Advanced training in learning and education enables Dr. Schwarzbeck to work comprehensively with both parents and educators. This customized care often informs and enriches partnering and strategies with parents and their child. 

A variety of technical approaches are utilized with children which are diagnostically determined and focused on results. These include play therapy, counseling, advice for parents, partnering with physicians and teachers, conjoint therapy, family therapy, child psychoanalysis, and academic coaching and partnering with teachers.  Because these diagnostic  approaches are correctly determined and then administered, substantial behavioral, academic, relational self-gains are reliably achieved.

Testimonials for Child Therapy

“We know him as our  ‘Child Whisperer’…”

We know him as our “ Child Whisperer.“

Dr. Charles Schwarzbeck has many attributes. Perhaps most importantly, he is an infinitely caring man, who is brilliant, well educated, and extremely effective in his field.

He understands the world of the adolescent and is able to relieve deterrents more effectively than any other professional I have worked with in 32 years.  After working with him, students who were previously submerged in difficulty are able to claim their own well-being. He is and has been an invaluable asset to our school community for more than 10 years. 

Dr. Schwarzbeck has a great aptitude for identifying concerns in human development and resolving them with comprehensive care.  He is precise, resourceful and deeply caring. Students and parents who contact him receive an answer promptly and find that his help gives relief immediately.

Charles Schwarzbeck’s work is professional and always respectful of the parameters of the school.  He is supportive of the educational setting and works well within the agenda of our public school.  He has come to school meetings to educate staff on best procedures for various learning styles. He will attend meetings for students who are his clients, to give staff the best possible understanding of the student.

Dr. Schwarzbeck has also presented in several “Coffees” to International Community Parents.  His topics are most relevant; contain the most of cutting-edge research from the highest authorities in the field, and user friendly, so that parents can begin to use the information ‘at the dinner table that night’.  Some of the topics have been: “Causes of Sadness in Teens and What Families Can Do” and “Disorganized of A.D.D.? What are differences? How to Help the Disorganized Student and the ADD Student.”

Thank you, Charles Schwarzbeck. Our school and it’s community are richer because of you. -Katherine Comeau

“We are so thankful we had Charles to help guide us through a very subtle yet specific learning challenge…”

“My 2nd grade daughter was experiencing some learning challenges that were brought to our attention during a parent teacher conference that we needed to investigate. I appreciated Charles’ urgency and seriousness he took regarding our daughter’s challenges as we had a short window of time to make an impact.  He did not want us to wait and he was very specific about what we needed to do to get the results we wanted.   While working through this process over the last few years, Charles was responsive and gave detailed information on how to proceed, which was extremely helpful.  Charles connected all the dots for us which I could never have researched and figured out on my own.  We are so thankful we had Charles to help guide us through a very subtle yet specific learning challenge.  I’m not sure how our daughter would be faring today had it not been for Charles’ intervention.”
