Relationships can be rich and rewarding as well as disappointing and painful. Perhaps you have repetitive arguments that go nowhere, or have reached an impasse, or your relationship has become distant and lacks intimacy. You may be experiencing a relationship crisis involving infidelity or other forms of betrayal. Creating a satisfying relationship that can stand the test of time requires skill, attention, and effort. I help couples develop the necessary relational skills to communicate and problem-solve more effectively, understand each other better, manage reactivity, navigate difficult challenges, and find a path forward.

Stress can be psychologically toxic, even for helpers. Loss, trauma, injury/Illness anger, shame & fatigue can lead to anxiety and depression as well as relationship and behavior problems. Therapeutic relationships improve health by assisting with psychological detoxification and with the establishment of healthy emotional, interpersonal/social, mental, and physical habits to help inoculate against these "toxins." Sometimes natural healthy defenses against toxic stress break down and fail to protect us against painful or maladaptive feelings, thoughts, and beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world around us.

Many of us need a safe environment, empathy, and validation to explore our potentials and move toward healthier and more fulfilling lives. I seek to listen to and collaborate with clients through integrative modalities and a systemic perspective.

We all know that sometimes life throws things our way that challenge us. Whether it’s work, relationships, finances, or anything between, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed, and to feel that these challenges are insurmountable. My aim with therapy is to create a space where you feel safe to just be present, no matter what you are feeling in that moment. All feelings are valid and worth exploring. My approach is to work together from within that space to get to know you - your hopes, your goals, your fears…all the things that make you, you. We can then make sense of the situations that you are caught up in and navigate them together.

Interpersonal Therapists
Is interpersonal therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found interpersonal therapy to be effective for life transitions including retirement, divorce, and job loss. Also, some studies have found it to be just as useful as medication and other therapy approaches. The benefits of interpersonal therapy can last long after treatment has been completed; the individual can use the tenets of this therapy throughout their life.
How long does interpersonal therapy take?
Interpersonal psychotherapy is normally time-limited and focuses on specific problems in the client’s everyday relationships. Treatment can be either one-on-one or take place in a group setting; it tends to last 12 to 16 weeks, depending on the individual client’s needs. If a new interpersonal problem arises in the future, the client may require additional therapy to address it specifically. The timeline and session schedule may vary depending on the client’s challenges as well as their progress. Treatment may conclude with wrap-up sessions to review the client’s accomplishments.
Is interpersonal therapy effective?
Research shows that interpersonal therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of conditions such as depression or anxiety. The approach may also offer a range of benefits that are hard to measure but valuable—including healthier relationships and improved feelings of self-worth. The therapist will give the client practical solutions that can be put into practice. The brief duration of this therapy also means that clients can see changes in their relationships fairly quickly.
What are the limitations of interpersonal therapy?
Interpersonal therapy may not effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as psychosis, chronic illness, or alcohol relapse. Because it is short-term in nature, it may not be the best approach for conditions that need to be tracked, though maintenance sessions are a viable approach under these circumstances.
Can interpersonal psychotherapy be done online?
Yes, interpersonal psychotherapy can be conducted effectively either in-person or online. A therapist with expertise in IPT will be able to adjust their techniques, such as role-playing, to better suit the online environment. Offering online IPT can make it more accessible for clients who have transportation difficulties; it also provides the ideal opportunity to explore challenges unique to digital relationships.
