Do you have an irrational, gut feeling you can't seem to shake? Maybe something telling you that you're not good enough, unsafe, powerless...? Sometimes, difficult experiences in our past can cloud how we live in and see the present. We find ourselves overreacting to things or people, feeling anxious or worthless. Our head can tell us we are being irrational, but that doesn't change the feeling. One of my goals is in helping you re-process the experiences in your life that push these feelings, so you not only know that you're okay - you feel it.

Has your relationship flatlined? Do you often wonder, “When did the thrill vanish?” or “Why is World War 3 happening in my living room?” Is your partner dismissive, cold, or indifferent? Maybe intimacy has become a distant memory. Is sex even still on the table? Perhaps you’re terrified that the best has come and gone. The fixes you’ve tried have turned into a cycle of rejection, resentment, and amplified hurt. You’ve probably started seeing or looking for the spark from someone else.

I help people empower themselves to make the changes they want to see by giving them understanding of where these obstacles came from and how they can actively change their own life.

Do you feel disconnected from people in your life? You are not alone. Relationships are often difficult because people struggle to connect with themselves. Connection is a basic human need. We long to connect with others and it starts by connecting with ourselves. This can be complicated by painful life experiences that lead to fear, mistrust, and hurt that can manifest in relationships with others, taint how we feel in the world at large, and impact how we see ourselves.

Your daughter threatened to run away again. And you’re not sure if it was frustration, anger, or just exhaustion, but you cringed as “go ahead, live under a bridge, I don't care" escaped your lips. Why did I say that?! Now you’re wracked with guilt. You never thought you’d be THAT parent. The one with the kid who fights with siblings and classmates, is on academic probation and never listens to what she’s told. You remember how sweet, doting, and polite she was as a little girl. So how did that perfect child turn into this?! You feel like you’re failing her as a parent, but you just don’t know how to help.

Self-Harming Therapists
How does therapy for self-harm work?
A person may turn to self-injury so that they can distract themselves from their stress, depression, anxiety, or upsetting circumstances. Therapy can address the cause of an individual’s suffering. A therapist can help a person understand why they may want to self-harm and help the person learn new methods of coping. A person may have poor emotion regulation, and treatment such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is helpful for breaking this behaviour. In addition, treatment such as dialectical behavior therapy can help a person manage their tolerance of distress.
Which therapies are best for self-harm?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, psychodynamic, and mentalisation-based therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies are common approaches for people who have painful thoughts and past traumas. These therapies help an individual cope with distress, regulate emotions, and manage impulsive urges.
Does the tendency to self-harm mean the person is suicidal?
Having this urge does not mean the individual suffers from suicidal ideation. People who want to self-injure look to distract or alleviate themselves from the pain they are experiencing. People with suicidal tendencies want to end life altogether. However, this does not mean a person with the intent to self-harm will not attempt suicide.
How often and how long are therapy sessions for self-harm?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Clients may see improvement within 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, while others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, maybe, a six-month period. People, especially those with co-occurring conditions like depression and anxiety, may need to continue therapy for up to 12 to 18 months.
