Life is filled with opportunity for growth. Psychotherapy is a powerful way to grow your capacity to enjoy life and outgrow parts of yourself that may have protected you once but are no longer helpful. Are there parts of yourself you would like to change or heal? Parts caused by trauma, childhood events, life stressors or relationships? Are you an adult child of emotionally immature parents - with unmet needs you want to explore and learn to meet? I teach skills to help you feel better quickly, and I also help you heal longer term patterns. We can clear painful memories from body, mind & spirit to create a healthy sense of self.
