Teletherapy for 06410

If you are considering therapy for yourself, child, or family, there is a reason for it, and one that you have to trust. Therapy can help you reach your specific goals such as improved relationships, working through a difficult past, or a recent life transition. When working with children, I seek to understand their perceptions, while bolstering their reasoning and communication skills. The ways in which we reflect on our stories are evolutionary and developmental, changing over time.

I provide comprehensive treatment in parenting and couples and family conflict.

We honor the courage it takes to ask and seek. Humans are meaning-makers, and we seek out answers, particularly to the hard questions around self and identity. Suffering is a part of the human experience, and the hardships of life have a way of giving us false answers to these questions of "who am I?" Difficult experiences fill us with beliefs such as "I am not enough" or perhaps "I am too much," or "I am shameful/unloveable/incapable/a bad parent/fill in the blank." Maybe you're struggling with a transition, or crippled by perfectionism or scrupulosity. Perhaps something from the past keeps coming up.

Change is an elemental force, often imposing its will on us when we least expect it. It can also be one of the most elusive things in our lives when we try to enact it on our own. Understanding our relationship to change, and what prevents it, provides us the opportunity to harness its power in our own lives. Understanding how your experiences and systemic forces have impacted your life will also be key to our work together as we build a new path forward for you. You have all the energy to enact change inside of you, the next step is determining what prevents this.

At times life can be unusually painful, scary and confusing. With the COVID-19 virus we are living through such a time. Generally speaking, we may feel anxious, sad, discouraged and alone, and not know what to do. When someone listens to us carefully, we learn how to listen to ourselves, to our own inner life. Talking things out with someone in this special way can help us become clearer about who we are, our strengths and also our self-defeating ways, so we can move forward with an improved sense of self and direction.
