Grounded in Adlerian theory, I view clients as being shaped by their experiences and as active agents in their own growth.
Navigating the daily challenges of life can be exhausting, overwhelming, and isolating. I believe that counseling can be a positive, satisfying exploration of such feelings and challenges in a safe space. Clients I work with are often searching for a place to process their life circumstances, both past and present. They may be struggling with anxiety, grief, sense of self, relationships, or coping with change. My goal is for clients to leave sessions feeling seen, respected, and encouraged in their unique life journeys.

As a therapist, I believe my primary responsibility is to provide a safe and supportive atmosphere within which clients can freely explore areas of their lives and selves which have not been working well.

At at the same time, I work to help clients develop realistic and healthy alternatives to old habits which are interfering with their abilities to become the individuals they are meant to be and to achieve the goals they have set for their lives.

This isn’t who you really are. Life looks great on the outside, but on the inside, you are scared, overwhelmed, confused, and anxious. It’s showing at work, school, and in your personal relationships. You always seem to fall short and it’s hard to stay motivated. The fear of making the wrong choice has paralyzed you to the point of inaction. It’s time to break out of the rut. Say goodbye to feeling anxious, insecure, overwhelmed, depressed, and imperfect.

Adlerian Therapists

How does Adlerian psychology work?

In the framework of Adlerian therapy, people are motivated by a sense of belonging and community, which drives them to surmount feelings of inferiority so as to contribute to their society; fulfilling these desires can help people flourish. Adlerian therapy proceeds in four stages—engagement, assessment, insight, and reorientation—in an overall effort to understand the client’s past and to achieve their present-day humanistic goals.

Is Adlerian therapy humanistic?

Yes, Adlerian psychology is humanistic; it focuses on the whole person, emphasizes their strengths rather than just their symptoms, and centers them in determining how they can grow and flourish. This school of thought informed the work of Abraham Maslow, who went on to develop humanistic psychology.

How long does Adlerian therapy take?

Adlerian therapy is a short-term, goal-oriented form of therapy that takes around 15 to 20 weekly sessions. Of course, some people may be in therapy for a shorter or longer time frame; length depends on the individual and the problem or condition they wish to treat. Clients can ask their therapist about the timeline for treatment before they begin and check in periodically to ensure that they’re on the same page in terms of progress.

Is Adlerian therapy evidence based?

There is not as much evidence to support the effectiveness of Adlerian therapy as there is for other types of therapy such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. But Adlerian therapy may be the right therapy for some people—whether they’re seeking to treat mental disorders or achieve self-growth—especially those looking for a holistic approach that emphasizes relationships, community, self-worth, and purpose.
