You’ve had experiences you can’t talk about with others. You’ve never made peace with them. They haunt you, lurking under the surface all the time. Leaving you feeling rattled, jittery, afraid, jumpy, depressed, fatigued and isolated. Decades of abuse. A pattern of falling in love with unavailable, alcoholic narcissists. Escaped poverty in shameful ways. Had an illness, injury or disability that changed your life forever. Perhaps you escaped a cult. Had a psychotic or manic episode. A near death experience. A spiritual awakening turned crisis. Think you’re an alien or were abducted. Healing wounds that are not yours.

Often, when I speak to clients who are new to therapy, they will ask me, “So how does this therapy thing work?” It is normal to be nervous when you start therapy. I strive to make the process as comfortable as possible. The first thing I focus on is laying the groundwork for successful therapy: essentially, I develop a relationship with you that feels comfortable, collaborative and not intimidating. My approach to counseling incorporates acceptance, compassion and a sense of humor into our work. Through experience, I have learned that you will benefit the most from a collaborative approach.

Ever feel like you are not enough or unprocessed grief is keeping you stuck? Do you feel like life is overwhelming? Has a past trauma or loss kept you from living life fully? I believe that these unresolved thoughts, feelings, and emotions can play into less helpful coping skills. Through growth and development you will experience a fuller life and your feelings will start to be manageable. You will imagine going through life with a clear sense of self and purpose. As Carl Rogers said "The curious paradox is when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change".

I work with sensitive clients who are experiencing struggles with anxiety, depression and relationships. This includes “people pleasing”, difficulties with self-compassion, navigating relationships that may be clouded by the tendency to highly value harmonious relationships, struggling with issues related to Narcissistic abuse, trying to “fit in” to a world that often feels draining and overstimulating, having difficulty speaking up in their relationships because they’d rather avoid conflict, and who are wanting to explore what the invitation of their symptom(s) or problem might be.

Helping couples improve their relationship is my specialty! I believe counseling should be a positive experience and work hard to create a safe space to explore problems (no matter how big) without either partner feeling attacked, blamed, or criticized. I help clients practice effective communication using research-based methods that are proven to be effective. You will also learn how to manage conflict more effectively (even when you disagree). My goal is to help create a mutually loving and respectful relationship, and for each partner to feel understood and have their needs met.

Even the "little" things feel overwhelming. Balancing work, relationships, and that inner voice that says you're not good enough is a constant struggle. Dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or relationship distress can make you feel like you're losing control. Despite looking like you've got your shit together, you're plagued with self-doubt, irritability, and a sense of hopelessness, and it's hard to make lasting changes. To put it plainly, life feels exhausting. But now, you're determined to break the cycle. You’re ready for relief, to quiet your mind, and above all, to take control of your life.

Codependency Therapists

What therapy types help with codependency problems?

Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.

What happens in therapy for codependency?

Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.

How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?

Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.

What is the goal of therapy for codependency?

One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
