I would like to shatter the misconception that therapy is only for people with severe psychiatric issues. Talk therapy is for everyone. Everybody has moments when they need a support system to deal with problems, but not everybody has a support system to turn to.

These comments do not provide support during the times when it is needed most.

Feelings of 'stuckness', dissatisfaction, and negativity serve a vital purpose in alerting you that something is off and something in the psyche needs to be attended to.

Whether you are dealing with significant life stressors or looking to improve the quality of your interpersonal relationships, you are likely searching for balance, stability, and ultimately, happiness.

You do not have to remain in a state of depression, anger, or anxiety. You will be provided with a non-judgmental and objective milieu to work toward reduction of unpleasant feelings, debilitating symptoms, interpersonal distress, and more.

Becoming more conscious, more aware of your complexities and psychological barriers provides opportunities for renewal of your life's potentials. Depth Psychotherapy rests on the premise that there is a natural, self regulating urge of the psyche which seeks its own wholeness. This natural propensity towards wholeness emerges out of the archetypes, universally inherited potentialities that express and maintain all that is uniquely human. In a Depth Psychotherapy experience, exploration of the unconscious dimensions of one's being promotes access to the creative archetypal potentials which activate authentic healing.
