Throughout our life journey we are met with numerous personal, family, and relationship challenges. Finding someone in whom we can trust during our most vulnerable life struggles can be particularly challenging. When we become overwhelmed by adversity we can begin to feel discouraged, alone, and hopeless. Often by the time we reach out for professional help we may have reached a point of despair. Sometimes negative choices we have made, or the abusive behavior of others, has placed us at risk for harm. In our most challenging moments we want someone who is there to listen from a place of compassion and non-judgment.

As a therapist, my greatest joy is to watch my clients complete treatment feeling empowered, resourced, confident, valued, free and whole. Often, healing is not a single event but a continuum that takes intentional time and space. My therapeutic approach is grounded in the belief that we are mind, body and spirit and as we address each part of ourselves, we can strive to become our most authentic self. I am passionate about working with clients who have experienced different forms of trauma (physical, emotional, psychological, etc.).

Having 40+ years of experience, I am able to work effectively with most patients with a variety of concerns. I have extensive experience as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist (CBT). CBT is extremely helpful in addressing anxiety, depression, and other emotional issues. I am able to look at patterns of behavior that have developed over the lifespan. I assist my patients to develop insight and understanding into their core beliefs about themselves and life.

If you want to live a more fulfilling life and attempt to live medication free, I can help you discover and work through past issues preventing you from doing so. Rather than masking and not resolving issues with medication, I believe behavioral change can occur through exercise, healthy eating, relaxation techniques and the use of cognitive behavioral strategies. Because so many people lack a positive support network, I encourage spiritual connection and support systems within the local community. Although I practice from a Christian perspective I do not impose my beliefs on clients.

Interpersonal Therapists
Is interpersonal therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found interpersonal therapy to be effective for life transitions including retirement, divorce, and job loss. Also, some studies have found it to be just as useful as medication and other therapy approaches. The benefits of interpersonal therapy can last long after treatment has been completed; the individual can use the tenets of this therapy throughout their life.
How long does interpersonal therapy take?
Interpersonal psychotherapy is normally time-limited and focuses on specific problems in the client’s everyday relationships. Treatment can be either one-on-one or take place in a group setting; it tends to last 12 to 16 weeks, depending on the individual client’s needs. If a new interpersonal problem arises in the future, the client may require additional therapy to address it specifically. The timeline and session schedule may vary depending on the client’s challenges as well as their progress. Treatment may conclude with wrap-up sessions to review the client’s accomplishments.
Is interpersonal therapy effective?
Research shows that interpersonal therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of conditions such as depression or anxiety. The approach may also offer a range of benefits that are hard to measure but valuable—including healthier relationships and improved feelings of self-worth. The therapist will give the client practical solutions that can be put into practice. The brief duration of this therapy also means that clients can see changes in their relationships fairly quickly.
What are the limitations of interpersonal therapy?
Interpersonal therapy may not effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as psychosis, chronic illness, or alcohol relapse. Because it is short-term in nature, it may not be the best approach for conditions that need to be tracked, though maintenance sessions are a viable approach under these circumstances.
Can interpersonal psychotherapy be done online?
Yes, interpersonal psychotherapy can be conducted effectively either in-person or online. A therapist with expertise in IPT will be able to adjust their techniques, such as role-playing, to better suit the online environment. Offering online IPT can make it more accessible for clients who have transportation difficulties; it also provides the ideal opportunity to explore challenges unique to digital relationships.
