I believe that people change when they are hurting. I create a therapeutic space where clients can explore and feel their hurt, safely. I value therapy in my professional and personal life. I believe that there is importance in creating and growing an alliance with clients for them to build trust. I see clients as the experts in their life. My clinical approach is to view problems as relational, contextual, and based on cultural/societal norms. I use mostly collaborative therapy and narrative therapy. My focus is on how clients have created self-constructed narratives of themselves.

Life and its transitions can leave you feeling defeated, overwhelmed and trapped. However, these "growing pains" can open up doors to experiencing more fulfillment and happiness. If you've lost passion in your life or relationships, struggling to get through the day, feeling alone, regretful, idealizing the past, or even numbing yourself in some way to avoid feeling empty, it's time for a change.

To the person meticulously scanning through these profiles filled with fear of making the wrong decision and feeling unsure of yourself. Take a deep breath, grab a cup of coffee or tea and let's chat. Put the "what if" worries on pause for a minute...maybe that's why you're here. Your mind won't rest. You have lists of tasks that need attention, but overthinking and procrastination interfere with that. You have to appear to "have it all together" because perfection is the only option. Fear consumes you; fear of letting others down and losing relationships, fear of failure, fear that you'll never be good enough.

Do you wonder if there is more to therapy than just learning how to manage your anxiety? Or do you think that there has to be a root cause for your chronic depression? There is. Although anxiety and depression may be genetic for some people, we are born as clean slates for the most part. My ideal client is someone who is tired of hearing that living with depression and anxiety is normal. He/she is interested in digging deeper, and understanding the underlying reason for his/her symptoms. He/she refuses to accept that life with anxiety or depression is the new norm, because they know a more empowered life is possible.

Are you having trouble coping with everyday problems? Do you feel overwhelmed in trying to deal with a close personal relationship? Is your child or teen struggling or making poor choices, or are the challenges of parenting too much to handle? Life situations can be stressful and can lead us to question our judgment and fill us with self-doubt. You try to address the issue, even with the support of family and friends, but this often seems futile. You may become depressed or anxious, or have difficulty managing your daily responsibilities.

Traumatic situations can vary from unresolved grief/loss, witnessing/experiencing a violent incident or accident, physical and sexual abuse, to betrayal in relationships. These experiences leave "imprints" on the mind and body which can leave us feeling anxious, depressed, “numb,” avoiding situations/places, unwanted memories, nightmares and guilt.

Gottman Method Therapists

How does the Gottman method work?

One of the core doctrines of the Gottman method is that negative emotions hurt relationships about five times more than positive emotions help them. Thus, couples require five times more positive interactions than negative interactions with each other. The therapist will guide clients on how to improve communication and understanding of each other to manage conflict and have their emotional needs met. The therapist will also advise couples on how to repair relations with each other when conflict arises, and therefore avoid lasting damage.

Is the Gottman method evidence-based?

Yes, this method is an evidence-based approach to couples therapy. The method is based on more than 40 years of research by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, the psychologists who developed the method. The Gottmans analyzed decades of data to draw conclusions about what types of interactions are likely to lead to specific results, and which interventions are most likely to lead to success. Studies have found that this approach leads to improvements in relationship satisfaction, intimacy, communication skills, and a lower rate of divorce.

How long does the Gottman method take?

The duration of treatment depends on the specific challenges clients face. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes long, and an average course of treatment is around 10 sessions. In some cases, such as for couples dealing with a critical problem, the therapist will suggest an intensive course of treatment, with daily sessions over the first two to four days. Treatment is complete when the couple is satisfied and has met the goals they’ve set, and when the therapist believes they have the skills to continue on their own.

Is the Gottman method effective?

Through the Gottman method, couples can achieve changes that are real and sustainable. This treatment has been used for more than 40 years; the method is supported by empirical research, including randomized controlled trials that have demonstrated effectiveness in improving relationship outcomes for couples. Like any talk therapy, success or failure depends in large part on how committed the clients are to making positive changes and working toward results.
