Like many others who have come to PT's therapist locator, you're likely anxious, depressed, and stressed: anxious over an unsatisfying social life, depressed by family members who intrude too much or fail to be there for you at all, stressed in your search for a loving partner. Caught in a morass of negative feelings, probably amplified by self-doubt, you're having trouble seeing a path forward and hope that working with a therapist can help. While no therapist can guarantee success, we know from research that three-quarters of those who see a therapist find it beneficial, so give yourself credit for taking this step.
Emotional distress may be common, but each person is unique. Therefore, I adapt my 'tool kit' to best meet each client's needs. This may variously involve exploring how past traumas play out in the present, coming to terms with painful feelings, modifying maladaptive thoughts that have taken hold, and bolstering the skills needed to have a better life.
Notwithstanding the approach I use, I know that therapy can succeed only in a supportive, non-judgmental environment, and that trust can only develop when the the therapist works collaboratively and is receptive to give-and-take. I would welcome the opportunity to meet for a free, 15-minute consultation to discuss your concerns and how I might help.

Most of my work has been with clients who are struggling with anxiety, stress, and depression, including grief and bereavement, due to relationships, in the present or during the formative years. Depending on each client's preferences, I draw flexibly on different therapeutic approaches because one size does not fit all when it comes to achieving personal growth.
