Dr Stephen R. Van Schoyck takes appointments Monday through Friday. As I do not participate with any insurance carrier, the out-of-network reimbursement in your health care plan will determine the extent of your coverage.

By Stephen R. Van Schoyck, Ph.D. As a psychologist in practice, loss of motivation has never been an adequate explanation for people's behavior. As an example, I treat many overweight people. None want to be fat. To a one, all hate to be fat. The motivation is obvious. The same principle applies to other health behaviors. People who start an exercise program want to keep going. Nobody wants to be unhealthy. So how do you explain that most people fail to stay healthy? So what is the answer? People can usu...

For more information, please read how I view human behavior in another section (see "The Nature of Human Behavior" below) to understand better how psychotherapy benefits my patients. What do I have to do to benefit from psychotherapy? Can I ask my therapist about his personal life? How long does therapy last? How often do I need to come? What happens if I miss my appointment? You may be charged for the consultation time. If it is a first offense, there is no charge as unavoidable circumstances happen...
