I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse and relationship issues.
Life leaves us feeling stuck, anxious, confused and alone. Instead of living, you are just surviving, life does not have to be survived, it can be lived with freedom. You learned how to be in this world through relationship, and it is through a safe relationship that new ways of relating are created. I am committed to creating a safe place to work with individuals to regain a sense of fullness and purpose for their lives

We'll explore recovery through the lens of attachment science and the importance of relationship/connection with self and others.
Some seasons (or years) of life can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, and fearful. Life can be devastatingly full of loss with little hope of recovery. I believe the best way to experience change and move towards recovery starts with acknowledging our unique strengths and resources - what are those things that keep us going? It also requires confronting the darker parts of life with a few trusted people. We are meant for connection. I would be honored to be a trusted person who walks towards healing with you. Are you open to exploring your own road of recovery with me?

As part of our work together you are invited to participate in meditation classes and relationship groups.
My approach to awakening is really quite simple: We engage in honest and direct dialogue about relationships, work, and your-self. During sessions you recognize core beliefs, thoughts, and feelings that create unsatisfying and difficult situations. In time you overcome anxiety, depression, and addictions that hinder a meaningful life. Additionally, you let go of long held resentments and regrets about your self, others, and the world. You become emotionally and mentally stable and discover practical solutions to everyday problems. With greater awareness, your energy is used for creativity. You are guided into a bright future!

Sometimes that path leads toward a deeper relationship with our current partner, sometimes it leads to goodbye.
Relationships are what bring us joy in our lives, but sometimes despite our best efforts we come upon a stumbling block. We find ourselves struggling or unable to connect to those we love and sometimes even to ourselves. Maybe issues from past relationships get in the way, maybe there is a trauma to the relationship (such as illness, job loss, or simply entering a new stage of life such as parenthood or midlife). There may have been an infidelity, loss of job, or emotional issues such as depression / anxiety. Often we just feel a lack of connection we once had.

Why see an Aasect certified sex therapist? If you and your partner aren’t feeling like partners anymore. You struggle to get on the same page about important issues like parenting and sex. Every conversation ends in an argument leaving you even more disconnected than before. Negative experiences from the past are showing up in your current relationship causing shame, fear and distrust. You may have problems with low desire, painful sex, difficulty with orgasm, delayed or premature ejaculation, erectile difficulties, infidelity or loss of attraction. You or your partner may be considering ending the relationship.

In relationship work, we focus on changing the negative cycle of communication and work toward the repair.
Are you in a relationship and still feel alone? Do you find yourself feeling angry all the time? Have you started to lose hope in your relationship? It doesn't have to be that way. Most couples learn that it isn't their partner they are tired of, rather the problem is the negative cycle that takes over every time they try to talk or connect. Individually, we can focus on easing anxiety and depression, boosting your self-esteem and setting boundaries where necessary.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
