Getting to the heart of a problem with compassion and skill, whether it be depression, anxiety, unresolved relationship difficulties, or just being stuck at some place in life, is the key to bringing about a true internal shift that leads to change and relief. People often come to me who have tried other approaches to their suffering, and I am frequently told that, within a few sessions, they begin to experience a new way of relating to themselves and others. I'm happy to discuss further.

Laressa Desmond,PhD, LMFT, Nothing hurts like constantly stumbling over the same old communication problems with your partner, when all you really want to do is be close. It’s hard to concentrate or have a lightness to the day when relationship struggles drag you down. We fall in love with people who are different enough from us to create a spark. It’s that “completion feeling” of interest & fascination. We feel sad & confused when the spark burns instead of warming us. It’s a baffling betrayal to our emotional logic that we can deeply love someone that we frequently fight with & sometimes emotionally dread.
