Finding grace and serenity and balance in life is no easy task - even with the foundation of a supportive, liberating childhood; miraculously healthy personal boundaries; and true friends, colleagues, mentors, and lovers. Self-sabotage, self-doubt, seemingly mistaken paths: we're all vulnerable. We find ourselves yearning for an elusive guidebook - to rewrite our lifestory or escape from sometimes paralyzing anguish. All the more so if an overlay of fresh or longstanding trauma (heartbreak, grief, abuse, crises of health, home, or employment) overwhelms and destabilizes us or undermines our ability to trust, to forgive our missteps, even to breathe deep.
Too often we respond to such pain with shame and self-punishment - toxic thinking. In contrast, therapy immerses us in learning the art of having difficult conversations - with ourself and others, an art that fosters acceptance rather than self-recrimination, shedding light rather than shame, as prerequisites for desired change.
Our conversation starts with keen listening to your story - patterns you may feel trapped in and ones you would prefer. Integrating Narrative, Gestalt, CogB, Psychodynamic, and Trauma therapies, my role becomes helping you hear yourself, rediscover your truths, and expand your choices on your path to greater fulfillment and serenity.
