If you are skeptical about psychotherapy because so many therapists endlessly talk about feelings, dwell on the past, or have abstract theories that only they understand, then my sensible approach is for you. I teach you ideas to help you cope with difficult situations, challenging people, unfair burdens, acts of disrespect, disapproval, rejection, and states of deprivation. I teach you ideas and strive to get you in and out of therapy. In my view therapy should be problem-focused, efficient, sensible, and teach you how to help yourself. I do not want you to grow dependent on a psychotherapist but rather learn how to depend on you.

Life has a intricate way of throwing curveballs to keep us on our toes. It can also be painful and overwhelming at times. Most people, at one point or another, find themselves needing extra support.

Therapy is a great place to start the process of accepting growth.

Everything looks great from the outside. No one would guess you're actually struggling with something. You're always on the go. Plenty to do with a demanding job and a busy family life. People who know you think you've got it all together. They have no idea that inside, you feel like your world is crumbling. This grief is with you every day. Intrusive thoughts about what you could have done differently, what you said, what you didn't say, what you should've said. So many memories, so many regrets. You want to heal. You want to move forward. A part of you is scared but deep down you know it's time to face this loss.
