I help individuals and couples discover a new and more complete understanding of themselves, their thoughts, feelings, and relationships. I work from an existential-humanistic orientation, a fancy way of saying that I believe every person is unique, valuable, and has purpose. For many people, discovering that purpose is the difference between a satisfying life and an empty one. For others, fulfilling their purpose gets messy and hard. In both cases (and many others) it can be helpful to talk it through with a therapist whom you like and trust.
With training in neurotherapy including the use of cognitive assessments and electroceuticals, I can often help in situations where talk therapy alone falls short. Trouble with attention/concentration, insomnia, migraines, lingering TBI symptoms, and psychological trauma can often be treated with a combination of therapy and neurofeedback.
Finding a therapist is hard, and therapy itself can be mysterious. I'm happy to chat by phone, explain all that I can about the process, and explore if meeting with me from time to time might be helpful for you.
