Authentic change happens from the inside out. It can't be veneered onto one's surface. Painful life experiences create a complex web inside that shapes a person's world. This web can limit one's ability to find joy and meaning in life. Psychotherapy offers a way to access deep emotional experience. As therapy proceeds connections will start to appear between past & current life experience. Problematic internal patterns will become visible and open to reevaluation and change. As internal stress decreases, clarity, joy and meaning will have the chance to emerge.

You might not believe it now, but YOU have the answers to your problems within you. Together we can discover your own inner resources to tackle ANY problem, create your health story, develop joyful and fulfilling relationships, turn family discord into harmony, and learn to deal with difficult people. I find results-focused therapy based on a client-centered philosophy to be truly effective and can help you achieve your life goals with the least resistance.
