Therapy Styles:
We all have to navigate life’s expected and normal challenges. Depending on our current circumstances and the history we bring, any of these challenges may be fraught with struggle or internal conflict. It is when we attune to the deeper aspects of our being that we can learn to discern the difference between the learned programs that come from the outside, and the internal processes of our own genuine feelings and sense of things. When we understand how echoes of the past shape the present, there is opportunity to resolve debilitating conflicts and to create new choices. An enlarged sense of possibility for oneself and a richer, less restricted life is a result. The healing benefits of therapy continue far beyond the course of treatment. We gain a greater sense of mastery, esteem, emotional honesty, tolerance for feelings, and a capacity for fulfilling relationships.
Areas of Expertise:
Working with people who are seeking help to improve their lives is a very serious trust. Along with my love of this work and the deep respect I hold for each individual, I bring substantial experience, intellect, heart, and a dose of healing humor to our partnership. It is a pleasure to work with those who are truly curious about themselves. I can help you with depression, anxiety, self-worth, sense of purpose or meaning, relationship or work problems, creative flow, trauma, addiction, ADD/HD.
