I experience each individual in a relational setting, focusing on what your concerns are, and we approach your goals together.
Things in your life feel off, emotions overwhelm you daily, your relationships suffer, and nothing feels like it can change for the better. Taking action to get help feels hard but you know something needs to change. Therapy is an evidence-based approach that will get to the root of what's going on and allow for meaningful change.

Time and Again ...we give our best efforts to rediscovering the marvelous qualities common to the early stages of falling in love and to evoking the richer dimensions of family life, and yet... We end up ...confused and disappointed, broken-hearted, enraged and ready to quit. Why? Because ...few of us were taught how to cultivate the emotional resources and practical skills for negotiating the daily complexities of living and loving. But the art of living --like all art--requires skill, discipline and persistence. Individuals and families who take this path do so because their love for whom they love demands it.

We all experience times when we know things can't stay the same, but we don't know how to make them better. It may be pain, loss, or resentments from the past. Or anxiety about future stressors and uncertainties. Or current struggles that leave us feeling powerless and discouraged. It takes humility to admit that what we're doing isn't working, and it takes courage to try something different. Choosing counseling is choosing to stop waiting for life to get better or waiting for people to change. It's choosing to make the changes we can to change our lives for the better

Hope is like a seed planted in a garden. If properly tended the potential for beauty and goodness is vast; if ignored, the seed may grow for a moment only to be choked out by weeds. Hope is also believing that a positive outcome is possible despite the challenges being endured. My approach in therapy is to help reveal hope by providing caring support, clarity, unbiased feedback, new coping skills, new communication skills, and a safe place to sort through the trials you are facing. Initial goals attended to include restoring hope that something will change for the better and earning your trust through being a safe person for you.

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.
