Emotions are adaptive responses to life, yet many of us struggle with identifying and expressing them. Early on we are taught which emotions are acceptable and which to avoid (e.g., “Be happy!”, “Don’t cry!”, or “Don’t you dare be angry with me.”). We quickly learn which emotions are safe to feel and which cause problem, leading us to use various mental tricks to bypass the troublesome ones. The issue is that emotional energy doesn’t just disappear. It gets bottled up and stored in the body, and the mind uses anxiety, shame, guilt, and distraction/numbing behaviors to keep the energy suppressed and out of conscious awareness.

You may be visiting this webpage because you realize that your marriage or relationship isn't where you want it to be.

This is true for healthy and unhealthy relationships. It is a positive sign that you are gathering information and taking an active approach to turning things around.

Lasting change occurs in therapy when one identifies and works through their concerns that have been outside their awareness. I develop a non-judgmental, intimate working alliance with my clients, in order to facilitate this self-understanding, both emotionally and intellectually. Such work fosters growth and creative responses to long standing difficulties in relationship to one's self and others. In return for investing themselves fully, my clients are offered the freedom to be more completely who they are, while also being able to maintain close and fulfilling relationships.

My professional training and years of experience have taught me that the people I work with genuinely want to lead happier and more fulfilling lives. They enter treatment because they want to develop closer and more rewarding relationships, because they want to achieve their life and career goals, and because they want to overcome the self-defeating thoughts and behaviors that get in their way and cause them pain and suffering. I have never met a parent who did not truly want the best for their child.

Depth therapy for adults offers more than relief from symptoms. It provides an understanding of symptoms as symbols that potentially point the way to greater development and wholeness; allowing for the emergence of your true self. In therapy, we build a trusting, deeply connected relationship that holds and contains deep emotional experiences. Ultimately accessing these deep and disowned parts of psyche lays the groundwork for healing and wholeness, a process also known as individuation.

We deserve to be heard, to have rich, meaningful connections, and to experience joy even in the face of our struggles. Clients I work with long, amid life's curveballs and losses, to find calm within themselves and their relationships. Over time, they learn to recognize their humanity in imperfection and that self-compassion is vital to their inner peace, no matter the depth of pain their story holds.
