Psychotherapy involves working together to build connections where safe communication can occur. Most of my patients seek a guide, confidant, teacher, or objective bystander who can help identify difficulties in relationships & devise strategies/build skills to help them cope with struggles in life. I work primarily w/ adolescents/young adults who struggle with "launching" into the adult world of school & work, with adults who have a hard time managing pain & chronic health problems, with people who have struggles related to sexual health, and with people experiencing grief & loss. Contact me directly via my office cell number at (612) 396-6949.
I believe in focusing on behaviors. We are creatures whose habits arise/evolve for many reasons. People often come to therapy to work on changing behaviors that aren't working. Since behaviors often contain deep meaning, part of therapy involves exploring beliefs/thoughts around habits that aren't working.
