My Approach to Helping
***When you are dealing with personal, relationship or career upheavals it helps to have someone to talk with who isn't a friend or family member. Therapy allows you to really get to know how you feel and what you want without worrying about the other person's needs or opinion of you. ** I provide a positive, mindful, solution oriented environment where you can explore and manage the stress that comes with living a real life. Your stress may be triggered by overwork, job loss, relationship issues or by more positive things like getting married or having a child. We will work together so you can develop new insights, learn to relax more and create a balanced outlook. ***You can learn to communicate more effectively, to pursue the life you want to live, to increase your tolerance for change, and to accept the things that can't be changed. I will give you a place to practice new skills in session, including practicing acceptance of yourself, other people and our human condition. ***My normal fee is $95 for a 60 minute session for individuals or couples, longer sessions are available!!!Special $80 Rate available for sessions that start before 3:30 pm. Call now for a free phone consultation.
More Info About My Practice
***I work with individuals and couples who are locked in repetitive emotional cycles that are difficult to understand and difficult to break out of. I will help you express the underlying longings and needs you have for more intimacy and closeness with others. *** We can work on creating new career goals or improving relationships with co-workers or bosses. ***I support women who are pre-orgasmic or have other sexual or relationship concerns. ***Men who want to develop better relationships with the women in their lives can use me as a sounding board to find out what's going wrong and how to be more available and responsive to women. ***I offer Pre-marital Counseling for ouples who are getting married for the 2nd or 3rd time and want to learn from the mistakes of prior relationship. You can use this time to learn some new skills and become open to your partner to help make this relationship a success. We can work on improving communication at the emotional as well as the practical level. ***If you are willing to work at making changes in your approach to life you can feel happier and more successful.
