Does something feel off? Do you feel like you're getting by okay but need a little something? Therapy might be just the right tool to get you back to your full functioning self again. Sometimes life makes us carry way more than we can handle (although we rarely admit it) and that load takes a burden on us emotionally, physically, and mentally. It affects our relationships at work, home, and even our sex lives! It's not YOU, it's LIFE! My specific areas of interest include marital conflict, divorce and/or remarriage, Infidelity, sex addiction/dysfunction, grief/loss, and more. If LIFE is weighing you down, let's get you better!
My therapeutic approach focuses mostly on Family Systems Theory, but my therapeutic interventions combine a variety of techniques associated with multiple theories. In our sessions, all aspects of your life – family of origin, relationship history, work, health, creative outlets, sex and spiritual beliefs (if desired) may need to be discussed and considered.
Together we will put a considerable amount of time and energy into our sessions. I want your experience to be positive and something you look forward to. It is important you play an active role in sessions (and home) with the things that we discuss. My space is yours to be comfortable, unwind, and explore your emotions so that we can build a healthier you.
