Why go to therapy? You might seek therapy when experiencing emotional pain or stress, even confusion about a situation or about yourself. Life challenges can pile up and seem overwhelming. Worry can interfere with relationships, work, and sleep. One goal of therapy is to relieve stress and every session should offer greater understanding of issues and relief in some way. Maybe you feel all alone with your concerns—it’s normal to feel that way. Therapy offers a place of understanding and acceptance, a place to be heard, and for you to feel safe with all of your feelings and thoughts, even those that you feel no one else has.
Many years of practice with adults, couples, and groups has taught me a lot about life, love, meaning, fear, and contentment. Some frameworks I tap for clinical understanding are: attachment, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, empowerment, and humanistic theories. Individual intervention plans are tailored to match concerns and goals collaboratively.
It is challenging to gain insight and develop new ways to relate. It requires an authentic, safe space to work toward personal goals by breaking old patterns of acting and reacting in relationships, enhancing self-esteem, setting healthy relationship expectations, being in-charge of emotions—hard work that can lead to living well and more fully each day.
