Too often psychotherapy focuses on causality, pathology and cures. However, rather than being "sick" or 'broken", often we are just lost inside ourselves or relationships. Everyone is a unique person with their own story, experience and perspective. The goal of therapy is to achieve a deeper awareness of where we are, to discover internal meaning for our many experiences, and to experience a life worth living. While working towards that awareness, I also feel it important to teach individuals, couples and families the skills needed to cope with the pain and day to day stressors that bring them into therapy.

Our personalities are not just what we consciously choose; they're shaped by a mix of conscious and subconscious drives. We often act based on subconscious desires and motivations we might not be aware of. Some subconscious processes actually help us adapt and function better. By becoming more aware of these subconscious influences (both positive and negative), we can better regulate our emotions and respond more effectively to our environment. This is why I am committed to helping clients achieve their objectives by exploring and adjusting their thoughts and self-talk patterns.

Life will present us now and then with the unexpected. This clearly is a time of major change for all of us. Not all of this is new nor is it novel. Even in the most normal of times we often do experience unwelcome events, the loss of a loved one, disability, addiction, economic insecurity, loneliness. To live is perhaps also to suffer. But we need not suffer alone. You will find me to be a compassionate, capable psychotherapist. Working together, I can help you to live a happier, more contented and fulfilling life. So then, where are you now? Where would you like to go from here? Would you like to create a new narrative?
