If you're thinking about starting therapy, you've already taken the first step toward making a change. I work with individuals and couples to help people move toward living more rewarding lives. Many of my clients are struggling with depression and/or anxiety. We work to reduce symptoms through simple interventions like mindfulness and breathing practice. At the same time, we journey together to understand the deeper meanings of your symptoms--whether they are biochemical, experiential (rooted in your past) or situational-the goal is to heal old wounds and change the current patterns that aren't serving you.
As a Certified EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapist) I work with couples who are trying to stay together through challenging times. Most relationship problems can be addressed with improved communication--learning how to speak to your partner in ways that are both compassionate toward your loved one and clear about your own needs and desires.
When you are ready to examine your life--to see what's working and what can be improved--I invite you to get in touch with me.
