Feeling whole, alive and steady with calm energy to fuel your life is possible. Your therapy goals may have to do with symptom relief, general mental health, insight, agency, identity, self-esteem, recognizing and handling feelings, work, love, mature dependency, pleasure, greater ability with patterns of interaction that aren't working for you, or something else. Working with a therapist in a safe, stable, confidential environment and building a collaborative alliance can help. Ensuring you and your psychotherapist are a good fit for each other is vital. I urge you to make this a priority as you consider who you will choose.
I specialized in psychodynamic psychotherapy and trauma/somatic work. Both acknowledge the effect of our unconscious life on our everyday life. Early experiences, trauma, fantasies, dreams, attachment patterns are all held in our bodies and affect how we move through each day, often out of our awareness. We can build awareness and strength together.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy fosters personality shifts and relational changes with oneself and with others over time. Unlike other types of therapy, research (by Jonathon Schedler) shows the results of this type of therapy can continue to improve even after the therapy is over. If you feel a connection to this, I welcome the opportunity to meet with you.
