Have you been trying to accomplish something for a long time ...and it's not happening? You want to be at a different place in your life than you are. Even though you think about it over and over again; with feelings of frustration, anger or depression, it's hard to get motivated. We all feel stuck at times in our life. It can be an important time for you to think about things in a new way. It's a wonderful time to consider being in therapy. You can gain new understanding which will bring about change.
My work is insight oriented; helping you to gain a better understanding of what's going on. Issues of depression, anxiety and relational problems. I specialize in troubled relationships with food, eating and body image; Also bereavement, complicated grief issues and working with people who have mentally ill family members.
Within a framework of insight oriented psychotherapy I have studied different techniques such as Art Therapy and Inner Relational Focusing. If that sounds like it might be of interest to you, we can explore how it can be helpful in your therapy.

Groups
Siblings of the mentally ill
This is an 8 week therapeutic support group for adults who have a sibling with mental illness. The group will provide an opportunity to share the often unspoken thoughts and feelings of the healthy sibling. Our focus will be to identify and acknowledge the impact of the illness on the relationship with your sibling and on you individually. Together, with others who understand your experience, you will gain new techniques to manage a difficult life long relationship.
