Are you feeling stuck or not listened to in your relationships? Are you finding yourself having the same arguments? Does it feel like you and your partner are speaking different languages? Or do you simply have a feeling that something isn’t working, that you’re disconnected from your partner or loved ones? Set yourself and your relationship up for success by engaging in relational therapy. Together we can understand why you’re both feeling stuck in your relationship and work to create new, healthier communication cycles. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Narrative Therapy which helps ground and facilitate this process.

In my practice, I find great value in meeting you where you are, building a relationship with you, and working together to differentiate between things you may wish to change from things to embrace in your life. This process may contain challenging moments; however, I would be happy to walk along with you in this journey of moving forward and creating peace in your mind. I presently offer individual therapy, available both in-person and remotely, incorporating a blend of talk therapy and art therapy tailored to your specific needs and preferences. Additionally, I provide an art therapy program and in-person group opportunities.

Sharing your story and asking for help can feel scary, and that's okay! Maybe feelings of guilt or shame made self-forgiveness challenging, or has a difficulty staying motivated through a life transition left you feeling out of control? Perhaps unspoken expectations about how you "should" look or feel have left you exhausted and/or overwhelmed. Or feelings of fear and anxiety have held you back causing you to feel stuck? If so, I am here to listen and support you.

Narrative Therapists
Is narrative therapy evidence-based?
Narrative therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy. Some small studies do show that depressed and anxious individuals who were treated with narrative therapy reported improvement in anxiety and depression symptoms.
How long does narrative therapy last?
Narrative therapy is less structured when compared with psychoanalysis, for example. Narrative therapy is more open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a few months, and sometimes a year or longer. Patients see their therapist one to two times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a person’s challenges and progress. Individuals can also practice the principles of narrative therapy after treatment has ended.
Does narrative therapy work?
Narrative therapy can help a person manage or reduce symptoms of conditions like depression or anxiety. This type of therapy encourages a person to reflect on the moments of their life when their particular problem was not at the forefront of their minds—perhaps life celebrations, achievements, and other successes. The individual is encouraged to rewrite their storyline as if their particular problem was not part of their life. This therapy may offer benefits that are hard to measure.
What are the possible limitations of narrative therapy?
Narrative therapy is person-centered or client-centered, and the health professional pays more attention to the subjective narratives that are constructed by the client, as opposed to other objective measures. The therapist privileges the individual’s perspective over all others. This open form may feel frustrating for individuals seeking a more structured approach; certainly, no one therapy type will work for every individual.
