There are many reasons someone may seek out a therapist, regardless of those reasons my goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where we can build a trusting therapeutic relationship that allows for positive change.
Everybody deserves to have the opportunity to feel that they're allowed to experience what they've experienced... and know they're not crazy... To be heard. I hope to provide a safe and nurturing space where healing and growth can occur. I like to view psychotherapy and the therapeutic relationship as having a personal trainer for your emotional well being and personal life. It can teach relational skills and promote healing. It requires a commitment to yourself and serves as an investment. The return on that investment can be achieving goals, growth, and emotional satisfaction.

The first question that a therapist usually asks is "What brings you in today?" This question in itself can be a point of tension. Maybe you don't know where to start, what to say, or what exactly brought you in today. I get it! I think when a person comes to someone else for guidance, that in itself is a very courageous act. Working with clients, I hope to help them better understand what their relationship to the problem is and how we can look at it from a more compassionate, flexible, and accurate vantage point. Co-collaborating with a client in an effort to encourage them to seek answers is one of my main roles as a helper.

From a humanistic framework, I address basic human needs to allow you to feel validated and treasured by your partner.
Relationships can be challenging when you don't feel felt by your partner. Sometimes you feel like you're in the twilight zone because the same argument just keeps happening. No matter how hard you try, you still feel the same: alone, unimportant, under appreciated or some other awful feeling. Many times your partner doesn't even know your pain; its just too much to say. My Advanced Emotionally Focused Couples therapy training will allow you space to take risks in a comfortable and supportive environment. I encourage an intimate connection that can withstand challenges. If you love him/her, you can tell him/her. All are welcome.

I bring a deep compassion for the struggles couples experience to my work.
Many of the couples I see come to therapy stuck in a vicious cycle that leaves both partners feeling isolated, frustrated, and heartbroken. Their best efforts to connect with and be heard by the other inadvertently lead to more arguments and distance. When relationships don't work, we hurt. So much of our happiness and well-being as individuals depends upon the health of our intimate relationships.

I work with adult individuals, couples and groups. The realities of life in this millennium lead to stressors that effectively separate us from one another and even from our deeper selves. While therapy can address areas considered to be problem solving the deeper work is interior. Self-knowledge leads to clarifying perspectives on life that make healthy and genuine connection more possible. Problems of human existence like meaning, loneliness, illness, death & freedom are common to all of us and are core considerations in therapy.

This approach enables us to access unconscious material, which strengthens the relationship to the Self.
Our real journey in this life is interior; it is a matter of growth, deepening, and of an ever greater surrender to the creative action of love and grace in our hearts. Thomas Merton wrote this a half-century ago, but it is still appropriate today. In our practice, we provide a safe, professional and holistic atmosphere, where people are supported in making profound changes and choices in their lives. I work collaboratively with both individuals and couples, using a plethora of techniques, including the Enneagram, dreams, myth, gestalt ,IFS, and EMDR.

Life transitions (personal and occupational) often result in challenges. Many of us become sad with grief and loss or face new challenges creating stress and anxiety. Effective management of conflictual feelings and stressers result in a healthier lifestyle for individuals and families. This stability has a positive impact on your productivity and well-being. My hope for each client is restoration of her/his highest level of functioning. With my skills, and experience I partner with clients to facilitate their goal- whether that may be symptom relief, behavioral changes, problem resolution or personal insight and understanding.
