You're doing your best. Despite the brave front, you're wondering if anyone really sees you, hears you, or understands you. In moments of deep honesty, you admit to yourself that you've been feeling this way for a long, long time. A friend of yours, a family member, maybe even your partner has told you that "You could use some help." You've googled your symptoms and downloaded apps, but you're really not sure what's going on with you. You've even tried therapy before, but it only seemed to scratch the surface. You're not alone, believe me: you sound like most of my clients.

Borderline, Narcissistic, and Avoidant Personality Disorders (BPD, NPD, and APD), complex trauma, autism, and undiagnosed ADHD can lead to insomnia, addictions, anger issues, major depression, and crippling social anxiety. These can threaten your relationships, your career, and your sense of who you are. That's where I come in.

You could use someone in your corner. I'll be honest with you, and tell you what I really think. Together we'll sort out who you are, what's going on, and where to go to from here. I've been helping people like you for thirty-five years. Give me a call and let's start building you a better life.

I usually work with clients that have serious issues, which take time to recover from. We'll start out by getting to know one another, so we can feel safe working together. We'll set some major goals for therapy, but we'll expect to stop for crisis-management from time to time. We'll share some tears but also a lot of laughter as we both learn and grow.

I prefer psychodynamic methods, which get "underneath" what we consciously appreciate about ourselves. My assumption is that you've come to therapy because of what you can't quite see. I can help you by asking questions about your unconscious motivations, and help you feel better about your entire self.
