Couples Counseling Therapists in Bethesda, MD

We all need healthy relationships and meaningful activities in order to have fulfilling lives. When we are struggling in one or both of these areas, psychotherapy can be immensely helpful. Our relationship can become a springboard for the positive changes you seek. While I primarily utilize talk therapy techniques, we may incorporate EMDR, breath work, or other methods. My style is active and collaborative; I will listen, and I will tell you what I think. We may focus on how childhood experiences have shaped current problems or emphasize what is happening now in your life.

Life is hard. Perhaps you feel stuck or unhappy without knowing why. Maybe you are reading this because you have been impacted by difficulties in your life causing you pain right now. Most of us can't escape the suffering inherent to life. Relationship problems, anxiety, depression, mindbody disorders, self-defeating patterns, attention/learning problems, trauma and abuse frequently motivate people to enter therapy. Your ability to accept help when needed is the hallmark of inner strength. Knowledge is power, and knowledge about yourself is at the core of how you relate to others, cope, and make decisions in your life

I emphasize teaching skills that develop inner resources for successful coping in life. I use a variety of methods, but the method has to meet your needs.

Couple and family therapy can sometimes serve as an efficient and effective strategy to improve the wellness of the whole family system. Sometimes severe psychological distress and suffering is located within the couple or family, rather than solely within a given person as it may appear at times. I have built up a strong skill set to offer a particular form of couple and family therapy known as "psychoanalytic couple/family therapy" which zeroes in on the undercurrent, unconscious meanings for destructive, relationship patterns that are outside the awareness of the couple/family.

Clients (individuals or couples ) in need of help with relationship issues, self-esteem concerns, depression, anxiety, and motivation will benefit from my approach.
