Were things going relatively well until a particular circumstance threw you psychologically off balance? Or have you been struggling for some time? Most often, the problems important enough to pursue therapy are not confined problems, but overlaid intertwined patterns of experiences, thinking, feeling, motivation, behaviors, coping, defenses, attachments, relationships, culture. Understanding your unique personality will clarify the meanings, causes, & functions of psychological difficulties; & provides a direction for the Most effective interventions for personal growth, healthy relationships, creativity, & well-being.
Unique, as both a Clinical Psychologist & Neuropsychologist: identifying & treating Causes of Core Issues, providing Depth Psychotherapies, Relational & Modern Psychodynamic. I use an integrative approach (holistic, contextual, dimensional): promoting sustainable Psychological Resilience, Improving Relationships & to Freely Live a Meaningful Life.
Most people who seek psychotherapy are ambivalent about starting. Part of them wants to change. Another part wants to preserve the psychological status quo, however painful and self-defeating it may be. I believe the goal is to flourish & also to provide unique, continuing support in a world that can often feel isolating and disconnecting. Give it a try.
