I believe most people benefit from a therapist who can share an understanding of their situation or relationship, while also providing a new perspective and feedback on what is getting in their way. Whether you want to take better care of yourself or your relationship with an important person, or you want to address a big stressor, I can help you feel more self-assured and make constructive changes.
Some conflicts seem irresolvable, but it is too painful to feel at odds with someone-- such as a romantic partner, parent, or child. I have advanced training and 12+ years of experience in helping couples and families, and I can work with you to change this dynamic in your relationship. I also use evidence-based approaches to treat anxiety issues.
I see therapy as a regular time that you give to yourself to evaluate what is important to you, and to share your story so that you have someone with you through important changes, challenges, and decisions in your life. It's central to all our self-care. I also think you need to click with your therapist - contact me to see if we are a good fit.
