Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

I help individuals and couples and families explore reasons for feelings of distress, anxiety, hopelessness, confusion, anger and resentment, beginning with current experiences and extending to historical issues from early experiences in their lives. I provide a safe place to explore these distressing feelings in the therapeutic relationship, while offering both acceptance and insights about the difficulties. I help clients work through their perceptions, assumptions, and hidden feelings that could be influencing current relationships. I help clients come to a greater understanding and acceptance of themselves and others, by accepting and valuing them myself. Allowing clients to be heard, accepted, understood and known fosters their growth and relational competence. I bring both a psychological and spiritual dimension to my work.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

I feel particularly adept at helping people with the intense feelings of depression or anxiety, often triggered by new or complicated situations in their lives. I listen carefully to their story, and offer insights and "tools" that could help unravel the seemingly knotty problem. Through the work together, clients find reasons to hope that they can face tomorrow with confidence and peace.
