The therapeutic atmosphere provided is safe, encouraging, insight oriented, and flexible. Over the years, I have focused my expertise on working with adults, families, and couples. I make sure that my clients feel validated, heard, and understood in a non-judgmental environment. Their needs, history, and life circumstances are taken into consideration in the therapeutic process. The goal is for my clients to achieve unconditional understanding, peace, and relief from disturbing symptoms. I am passionate about helping my clients achieve health and improvement in their quality of life.

If you are ready to make a change in your life and a committment to do the work, I will help you regain your health and happiness. I practice transpersonal psychology which focuses on the integration of body, mind and spirit. This helps to bring balance to your life and is effective in bringing about lasting, positive change. Together we will identify your strengths and increase your coping skills. I will be honest,direct and gently challenging, helping you regain your "best self". I work best with issues of trauma, relationships, addictions (all types) and codependency, child custody and co-parenting/mediation.

Two innate drives we all share are the desire for self love and connection to others. By integrating the practical application of system based theories with structured skill building and holistic medicine, negative thought patterns and shakey attachments can be replaced in order to create the space to re-imagine one’s belief systems.

I’m excited to tell you about the work I do with individuals so your intuition can better inform you whether or not I’m a good fit to support you. I am interested in helping you cultivate a more loving and understanding relationship with yourself and your intuition with the support of a connection to spirituality. I truly believe our own misunderstanding of our hurt supports us in hurting our selves and others, consciously and unconsciously. All individual and collective difficulties stem from that truth and exploring things from a spiritual perspective is what I have seen work most effectively in my many years of doing this work.

I'm a psychotherapist with twelve years of experience helping people find meaning, healing, and growth through their struggles. While I believe each person's trials and issues are unique, I've come to specialize in helping my clients navigate grief and loss, chronic pain and illness, depression and mood problems, anxiety and fear, turbulent life transitions, and issues around self-esteem and identity. I have had a lot of success helping clients for whom past therapies have been minimally effective.

My priority is for all my clients to feel safe and comfortable in the counseling room. My clients will experience a relaxed, non-judgmental and positive atmosphere to openly discuss their troubles, adjustments and triumphs. I believe in the power of therapy, that speaking your truth and gaining an outside perspective can transform, and that having the right tools can make a huge difference in a person's life. I'm very proud to serve individuals, couples and families who are dedicated to do the work it takes to make the changes they seek.

If you are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, or trauma, I invite you to come outside and take a peaceful and mindful walk alongside me. We will talk as we stroll to uncover insights, explore your strengths and struggles and work to adapt new skills so that you can be emotionally flexible, happy, and in sync with life again. If you wish to progress further in your sessions, we will develop goals in between sessions to allow you to overcome destructive thoughts or habits. I also offer phone/video sessions for those who feel more comfortable in their own home.

Life can be hard, the world is a confusing place. Navigating the way through everyday situations can be challenging. Having someone come along side you to listen or to be a guide and suggest alternatives to behaviors that are troubling and holding you back from the life you want to live can make a difference. I have been working with people for over 20 years, helping them in their unique journeys. My emphasis is growth and change and I believe that acknowledging trauma through the individuals experience can aid in their own understanding and help to define their place in the world wherein healing can take place.

Congratulations on taking the first step in finding solutions to life's challenges. Seeking support is a huge strength, which takes bravery, you are not alone. My most important consideration is cultivating a safe space for vulnerability and authenticity. I aim to create a collaborative space that fosters positive change to ultimately transition new skills, insight and behaviors out in to your every day life. I work with a broad range of clients including but not limited to: military personal and their families transitioning back in to civilian life, to incarcerated youth grappling with drug addition, violence and instability.

I can help you learn ways to communicate to important people in your life, unravel current emotional issues, get the clarity. This gentle, non-judgmental compassionate process is outcome-oriented for you. Long-term therapy also available if you prefer. I can help you clarify your own needs to yourself, to find ways to express those needs and to meet them. Free up your ability to respond not just to others but to your own self. Experiences can be useful. You are not going crazy you are just waking up! Discerning your position helps you understand: BrainMind (ego) vs Witness vs Higher Self Awareness, reveals much. Online sessions ok.

I have been in the field for over twenty years working with children, adolescents and adults with issues related to trauma, loss, family conflict and life changes. All of these can create stress, which left untreated, can develop into debilitating symptoms of depression and or anxiety. My work is focused on giving you the tools to manage your symptoms, while identifying defeating patterns of thought and behavior and helping you develop healthy thinking and behavior to promote healing, growth and wholeness.

Our relationships - particularly our romantic partnerships and pursuits - are one of the most powerful places for personal transformation. But often, that's not what it feels like. Whether you are looking for new love or have been in a relationship for years - when challenges come up, opportunity is not the first word that comes to mind . It's hard. It's triggering. It's painful. And no matter how smart or insightful you are, it can feel like a dead end. It's easy to wonder: Is love and fulfilling partnership really possible at all?

Are you feeling unsure or stuck? Unable to get motivated, full of self-doubt? Wanting to make a change but scared to do so? Disconnected from yourself but not sure why? If you are suffering from any of the above, then I can help. Working together, we get to the core of what is going on in a safe and supportive environment so that you can feel calm, clear and empowered to begin to make some changes.

What your needs, your concerns and your goals are is important to me. You may find it hard to see the path ahead currently, together we can question and explore. Your story is unique. As a Jungian Analyst, and MFT, I will walk alongside to help you develop skills and insight, deepen your self understanding and empower you to work toward your meaningful goals.

What makes therapy work is the relationship/connection between the therapist and client, as well as the skills and technical expertise the therapist brings to the table. I am supportive, caring and committed to being totally present, meeting people where they are right now, hearing them in their own terms. Relationships between individuals, couples and families have become so stressful in these crazy-making times. I see my job as helping clients untangle life's challenges and assisting them in getting in touch with their own inner resources.

My name is Robert and it would be an honor to be your therapist. The biggest complaint that I hear from people about their previous experiences with therapy is that their therapist didn't DO anything. That's not me. I have a very active, solution-focused approach. Not only do I want to be there for you as an empathetic listener and learn to speak your emotional language, but I also want to help you take ACTION. To me, that means helping you identify the problem and find skills and strategies to make an immediate impact on your situation. My approach is down-to-earth and grounded in reality.

With well over 15 years experience working with clients in various settings, I still find it an honor and joy to witness personal transformations. I provide a warm, safe, and non- judgmental space where children, teens, and adults can reflect on how they are developing and explore what changes they want to create for themselves. I join clients in creating attainable goals that help find balance, satisfaction, and well being in all areas of one's life.

I work in a safe and comfortable partnership with my clients to facilitate being active participants in their own transformation. I work with releasing negative thinking and self-talk, raising self-confidence self-respect and motivation, relieving stress and anxiety, relieving fears and phobias, letting go of the past, pain control, relationship issues, surviving divorce, changing negative habits, releasing anger and guilt.
