I work with the “silent suffering”, those whose lives look fine on paper, but something is off. My clients have jobs, relationships, run a household, etc., but they are lonely and/or do not feel fulfillment. Some clients were the good kids in the family, the ones who never spoke up and have a lifetime pattern of holding feelings in. Some put the needs of others before their own. Others are self-medicating (overeating, overdrinking) underlying conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADD or OCD. Some have unresolved trauma that creates self-doubt and over-owning mistakes. These clients often stay too long in bad relationships.

We are born inherently intact, hard wired to experience life fully in all its beauty. By no fault of our own, life often leads us astray from our true nature, and we are left depressed, anxious, traumatized: hurting. By choosing to enter a therapeutic relationship with a caring other, I strongly believe that we can reconnect with that core energy and vitality. Therapy can be the vehicle to healing the mind, connecting with our core spirit, and achieving the personal growth and fulfillment that we all seek as humans. I would be honored to be that caring other and accompany you on your journey of healing and fulfillment.

Please email for limited availability When you are struggling or feeling something is just not right, it can be hard to figure out next steps. Stress, depression, and anxiety can interfere with relationships, school, work, and sense of belonging. For those who feel they have unhealthy or unwanted thoughts, feelings or habits, therapy can be a place to explore and create a path forward. Sometimes you just need a space to be open and honest, to be heard without judgement, to speak your truth. I work to create a comfortable and reflective environment that helps to build insight and highlight inner strength.

Narrative Therapists
Is narrative therapy evidence-based?
Narrative therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy. Some small studies do show that depressed and anxious individuals who were treated with narrative therapy reported improvement in anxiety and depression symptoms.
How long does narrative therapy last?
Narrative therapy is less structured when compared with psychoanalysis, for example. Narrative therapy is more open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a few months, and sometimes a year or longer. Patients see their therapist one to two times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a person’s challenges and progress. Individuals can also practice the principles of narrative therapy after treatment has ended.
Does narrative therapy work?
Narrative therapy can help a person manage or reduce symptoms of conditions like depression or anxiety. This type of therapy encourages a person to reflect on the moments of their life when their particular problem was not at the forefront of their minds—perhaps life celebrations, achievements, and other successes. The individual is encouraged to rewrite their storyline as if their particular problem was not part of their life. This therapy may offer benefits that are hard to measure.
What are the possible limitations of narrative therapy?
Narrative therapy is person-centered or client-centered, and the health professional pays more attention to the subjective narratives that are constructed by the client, as opposed to other objective measures. The therapist privileges the individual’s perspective over all others. This open form may feel frustrating for individuals seeking a more structured approach; certainly, no one therapy type will work for every individual.
