Life Passions
I am passionate about life, living it fully and the significance of relationships. Especially given the brevity of our lifespans, the fragility of life and the inevitable challenges and often suffering we all must cope with sooner or later, some of us unduly more than others.
Favorite Services
- I truly enjoy helping anyone sort through relationship issues, patterns and challenges. In conjunction with that, couples and marriage counseling as well as helping navigate anyone through the sometimes treacherous waters of separating from a high-conflict personality during a divorce or break-up of any kind.
- In addition, seeing someone overcome a debilitating anxiety disorder is very rewarding as progress can often be made rather quickly given clients’ readiness and cooperation.
- Teaching parents how to mitigate behavioral issues or to accomplish behavioral goals for and with their children based on positive behavior modification.
- Helping leaders address and resolve personal or organizational challenges in their respective relationships, companies or departments.

Counselor Naples: Dr. Udo Fischer
“All that we are is the result of what we have thought.” For generations, this wisdom has been a cornerstone of the philosophies and religions of man. It reflects the essence of dynamic and transformational therapy and provides the keys to our happiness and success.
With a true understanding of the profound yet practical validity of this statement, there is no psychological or life issue that I can not show you how to manage!
Proven by research to be the most effective approach both in long and short term outcome, Cognitive Behavior Therapy lies in perfect harmony with such wisdom.
In Europe I worked with Prof. Sachse, a leading expert for psychosomatic disorders and persistent, recurring interpersonal problems. I completed specialty training in the treatment of anxiety disorders, such as OCD and Social Anxiety. In Philadelphia my expertise in Cognitive Behavior Therapy was further deepened with Aaron and Judith Beck, founders of the Beck Institute of Cognitive Behavior Therapy.
Utilizing the wealth of this background, I employ a conflict management approach for couples and families equally applicable in educational, business and diplomatic contexts. It reveals that needs are never in conflict, but rather our strategies to meet these needs. Such focus will be the basis of our work together.

Testimonials
Dr. Udo is a great therapist providing great care and conventional and unconventional therapy methods. He is not one who keeps people in therapy but someone who tries to resolve clients issues as quickly and effectively as possible.
I can only recommend him very strongly.
I highly recommend working with Dr. Udo Fischer. He is intelligent, empathetic and encouraging. He is solutions focused and has given me the guidance, tools and compassion to work through a very difficult period in my life. He is an excellent example of how powerful therapy can be when you are working with the right person.
I cannot say enough about Dr. Fischer. His approach to helping me cope with anxiety was extremely helpful and solution-orientated. Each time I left his office I gained more tools and knowledge on how to live a more anxiety-free life.
