My work with clients consists of a blend of Gestalt, Voice Dialogue, Internal Family Systems, Attachment-Focused therapy, mindfulness-awareness, insight-driven and experiential therapy, relational/interpersonal therapy, emotionally-focused therapy, psychodynamic techniques, body-centered therapy, psychedelic, and a blend of other common modalities-CBT, etc.
You have a calling to know yourself more completely, to make lasting changes in habitual pattens, to engage in the deep healing of unconscious unfinished business, and to integrate awakened insights fully into the body, into relationships, and into your life in the world. We get to know each other to build trust, identify areas for exploration, and then we dive. The therapeutic experience involves transformational epiphanies and the processing of hidden and stuck emotions. I gently challenge my clients to lean into uncomfortable places and build the tolerance for psycho-spiritual unfolding. See my website for more information.

Parenting a struggling teenager can be a nightmare. Not only are they changing, but your relationship with them and your role is changing as well and the stakes are higher. As they work to establish independence, develop self-identity, and take steps toward becoming adults, they can reject your help, especially when they need it the most! Often, struggling teens create destructive and negative intense experiences because it is the only way they know how to feel connected. Our tight-knit team of clinicians can help your teen, and you take on the teen years with more confidence and grace.

It didn’t come as a shock. Your grandmother was elderly and had been sick for some time. But the news of her death hit you like a ton of bricks. You’re not sure why it’s affecting you so much. You can’t stop crying, and it’s hard to concentrate. You’re falling behind at work, and you worry that your partner will get sick of your dark mood. You thought you'd done a lot of work on becoming more resilient and learning how to cope, but now it feels like you've lost those gains somehow. Nothing you try makes a difference, and you’re embarrassed to be struggling so much. It feels overwhelming, frustrating, and isolating.

Relational Therapists

How does relational therapy work?

Relational therapy was developed by psychologist Jean Miller, whose ideas stressed that having strong connections with others encourages better health and well-being when compared with a lonely existence. Conversely, poor interpersonal relationships do not foster growth and learning. Relational therapy also encourages trust in others and patience with others, along with better communication and less conflict.

Is relational therapy evidence-based?

Relational therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating certain mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioral or acceptance and commitment therapy. However, relational therapy uses techniques found in cognitive behavioral therapy as well as psychodynamic therapy, which are both well-studied with empirical research.

How long are people typically in relational therapy?

Clients may see improvement after a few weeks or months of therapy. Like cognitive behavioral therapy, relational therapy can reduce symptoms within 10 to 20 weeks, at 45 to 50 minutes once a week. But like any type of therapy, improvement depends on the person and the severity of the problem.

Does relational therapy work?

While no therapy type will work for everyone, some evidence suggests that this therapy can be effective. Relational therapy can help a person manage problematic relationships as well as the mental health conditions that accompany difficult relationships like depression or anxiety. This therapy type may offer benefits that are hard to measure but can be just as valuable—including feelings of higher self-worth or healthier connections with others.
