About
My goal for every individual, couple, or family I work with is not just to solve problems but to achieve actual long-term happiness. I do a developmental, growth-oriented style of therapy, best suited to intelligent adults, couples, or families interested in permanent solutions to emotional difficulties such as depression, inter-personal conflict, loneliness, lack of meaning, insecurity, panic, or anger. Therapy as I practice it will change how you understand yourself and other people, how you react to life events, and most important of all, how you feel on a day-to-day basis.
I have succeeded with problems of depression, abuse and trauma recovery, "anxiety", panic, lack of meaning in life, social fears, shame, anger, and lack of confidence.
I do not accept cases where the primary problem is psychosis, substance abuse, criminal behavior, or developmental handicap
I have a lot of experience and training in helping individuals to recover from child abuse experiences, including treatment of dissociative disorders.
I have an associated website at IJustWantToBeHappy.com that gives basic emotional information and some idea of my treatment approach.
