My Approach to Helping
When we meet for therapy, it is important that you feel we have a good connection and that you feel understood and truly seen by me. I will work with you to create experiences that will enable you to discover and use the deeper emotional truth underlying your struggles. Often with the methods I use, knowing the deeper truth and inherent logic of a specific problem or issue leads to transforming it, dissolving it, even more rapidly than is commonly thought possible in therapy. I believe that you have the wisdom and knowings that are keys to unlocking the doors to your happiness, growth, and creativity. Working together in therapy, I can help you make lasting changes in your life and relationships.
If you are in a relationship and often angry and fighting or unhappy and lonely or just stuck in patterns you don't like, the tenderness, passion, and connection you want can be restored. Sometimes misunderstandings and hurts now or from previous relationships and childhood leave people with baggage that prevents closeness and loving connection. By carefully crafting empathic conversations between you, we can mend the hurts. By uncovering the emotional truth of present or past experiences, we can unpack the baggage so that you can settle into the safe haven your relationship can become.
More Info About My Practice
The methods I use can also be quickly effective for people who are recovering from trauma or violence. I find that Coherence Therapy, also known as Depth Oriented Brief Therapy, EMDR, and Mindfulness Practices enable us get to the heart of the problem and transform it. If you are stuck in grief, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or procrastinating, you can find relief in therapy, and I can help you have a more creative and joyful life.
