Some other areas of focus include therapy for therapists and divorce/separation.
Therapy is a collaborative and healing process where we come to develop a common understanding of how your personal history, unique personality, and current struggles influence your life. In any therapeutic relationship, you should feel safe and not judged while exploring your inner thoughts, feelings, and motivations. In this process, I hope to create a transformative space for greater self-understanding, improved self-esteem, and more satisfying relationships. I work with adults and couples at all stages of life.

A core part of humanity is to feel belonging. Many people experience that most intensely during childhood from their family and friends. As we grow older we develop other relationships that give us that sense of belonging. When you experience injuries to those relationships it can leave yo feeling isolated and depressed. When those injuries happen during childhood it is referred to as developmental trauma. But trauma is not a life sentence, in fact what many people don't know is that post-traumatic growth is more common than Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I work with individuals and families who want to understand trauma and grow.

It's hard to talk to a complete stranger about your most personal thoughts, worries and experiences. However, discussing these matters with an unbiased party will allow you the ability to truly explore all of the options/perspectives in front of you.

It is okay to not be okay, as long as you are willing and ready to invite change and progression into your life. Though, deciding to seek help can be one of the most difficult and most rewarding decisions you will ever make. Be assured that therapy is an individualized journey that empowers you to be honest and open, giving you the willingness to overcome your struggles.

You can’t believe your relationship has gotten this cold. Conversations turn into arguments filled with personal shots, past issues, and defensiveness. It's hard to communicate without feeling judged. You’ve tried countless strategies to get back on track, but nothing works consistently. This leaves you feeling alone, frustrated, conflicted, and desperate. Sleepless nights are filled with thoughts that your relationship might end if things don’t change now.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
