I work at helping individuals understand how the coping skills we learned to survive growing up - do not necessarily serve us well in our present lives - whether at work, with friends, or in our most intimate relationships. We will address skills and ideas to help deal with current life issues, and explore better understanding of how our past affects our present.

I feel cognitive based therapies such as CBT and ACT are helpful for managing day to day stressors of life, but feel IFS, Psychodynamic, Attachment-based and Emotionally focused types of exploration are more helpful for long-term healing and better understanding of how we, as individuals, have arrived at this moment in time.
