I take a direct approach to treatment. Although eclectic in style, I am most closely attached to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). We will focus on the thought processes and behavioral responses that are contributing to the life dissatisfaction you are experiencing. I am solution-focused. The atmosphere will be empathetic, but our goal will be to effect change in your life. We may discuss your childhood, family relationships, or specific losses and grievances, only to the extent necessary to understand what is happening now.

My first goal will be to come to know you, understand your situation and your hopes. In the first few sessions, working together, we will develop a detailed plan for change, with focused steps, beginning right away, to help you make important progress.

We are becoming more aware how psychological pain increases when we haven't developed a strong sense of self. Such distress, presenting in forms such as depression and anxiety, can keep us from profound and beautiful connection. Healthy relationships we have with ourselves and others are essential for our emotional well-being. First, live a life that reflects who you are, even if others don't quite understand. Trying to conform to what others want has never been possible. In the Power of Awareness, Neville wrote, "The awareness of 'being' remains regardless of the degree of forgetfulness of who, where and what I am."

I believe that as we set goals, it's important to celebrate the small success stories along your path. As we develop our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors across our lives we question if they feel disruptive or wrong. We all face difficulties with barriers and stressors as we navigate life's complex systems but too often, we dismiss those feelings and struggle on. Taking an active approach is how we process our circumstances and gain back control for personal self-care, growth or happiness. By taking time to reflect on our own needs, you can focus on living a healthier and more fulfilling life with the use of therapy.
