Life is about feeling connected, sharing in the joys and sorrows, and striving for something better, a better you. Therapy is a place where you can share and explore the challenges and achievements that make each of us an individual. I believe that forming a safe, non-judgmental relationship is fundamental to therapy and what guides the healing process. We work together in order to gain insight and learn healthy coping skills in managing challenges faced and the feelings associated with them. I believe that the most difficult job is working on ourselves but it is also the most rewarding.

Initiating the journey of change and personal growth requires courage since it can be anxiety provoking. Your action to explore therapy is a testament to your strength & resilience, marking the beginning of a brave and positive move toward the life you deserve. Together, we can navigate a journey towards nurturing healthier connections with yourself and others, shaping a more fulfilling life and relationships. We'll collaboratively delve into your experiences through compassionate, engaged self-inquiry, aiming to uncover and transform them with experiential approaches.

My priority is to help clients lead a valued, fulfilling life. I work well with creative or insightful individuals who are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life decisions or transitions. In addition to working through specific challenges, psychotherapy is an opportunity for you to gain insight into why you act the way you do, explore who you want to be in the world, and better understand what you need in order to thrive. I feel privileged to do this kind of work with people.

People seek psychotherapy for a variety of reasons.I have been in private practice for over 25 years. I specialize in addiction but also provide individual therapy for a variety of personal issues. I also provide relationship counseling for married couples and couples who are thinking about getting married or just struggling in their relationship. I also have experience working with Gay and Lesbian couples and individuals. My psychological orientation is eclectic and I like to work with clients who are interested in depth psychology and want to develop insight.

I enjoy working with adults to help them develop understanding and perspective to deal more effectively with the issues, dilemmas and stressors of modern life including anxiety, depression, chemical dependency, and the unresolved issues of traumas and grief.

I believe in the infinite power of therapeutic connection - a unique relationship which has magical power to create space where change and transformation can happen. My approach can be best described as a blend of client-centered philosophy (emphasizing unconditional positive regard and acceptance), cognitive-behavioral techniques, and acceptance and mindfulness strategies. My practice offers you a welcoming, caring, and safe place for exploration, discovery, healing, and self-realization.I am an EMDR and Brainspotting therapist. Currently, I am offering phone and video sessions to my clients.

Hi there, I'm Jonathan, a licensed marriage and family therapist. Congratulations on taking your first step toward wellness and recovery! I help people with issues like anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger management, marital/pre-marital issues, and more. I help my clients find their inner peace, develop coping skills for inter/intrapersonal struggles, and gain insight and focus to possess healthy cognitions and lifestyle choices. I use a variety of techniques including CBT, Solution Focused, Psychoanalytic, Humanistic, and Family Systems. I am nationally accredited as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist.

I'm am interested in working with individuals, couples, and families who are committed to their own personal growth, healing, and well being. I help people who have hit one of life's many unpredictable speed bumps and need help to go over it, increase their vibrational frequency, capacity for joy, and get on with their wild and precious lives.

If you're someone who's had trauma, an illness, recent loss, relationship struggles strong emotions of anger and/or saddness that are getting in the way of living fully, I'm here, bringing my 20+ years experience helping folks work through barriers to lasting change. Often past experiences or current situations cause us to develop creative ways of surviving that don't function well. I work with folks on processing their present concerns while keeping an open door to looking at the past and dreams that inform, revealing the source of repeating patterns. I help people to transform their pain into new meaningful emotional experience.

With a doctoral degree in Counseling Psychology and a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, I have actively engaged in therapy since 2007. I understand that our behaviors and self-perceptions are significantly influenced by early childhood experiences, often perpetuated by our current relationships and family dynamics. Additionally, our community and cultural backgrounds play a crucial role in shaping these perspectives and behaviors. I believe that fostering meaningful change involves creating an environment where individuals feel safe, supported, and receive honest, constructive feedback on their concerns and behaviors.

Over the last 27 years as a clinical psychologist, I have helped many individuals, couples, and families. Individual clients often enter therapy feeling disconnected and lost. They have reached a point where the usual ways of coping are not working and are open to trying something new. Couples often come to see me feeling exhausted, alienated, and hopeless about their relationship. They wonder whether their relationship can recover and heal. My work with families includes addressing the profound sense of detachment between parents and teenagers, particularly when compounded by the presence of teen depression.

Struggling to adjust to a major life change? I help people who are experiencing anxiety, sadness, indecision and/or isolation stemming from a shift that has happened in their life. Whether it is a recent or pending break up, the loss of a loved one, or a recent move, change can be extremely challenging and anxiety provoking. Therapy gives you the space to talk about what's going on in your life and gives you the opportunity to learn new tools so you can successfully deal with what you're experiencing. It's easy to get trapped in unproductive patterns when you aren't where you thought you'd be in life, and therapy can stop that.

What is your vision for your life? My non-traditional, postmodern perspective results in a collaborative style of therapy designed to help you find the answer. Together, we will examine the contents of your life and determine which elements will be useful on your journey, and which should be discarded. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and a certified Imago therapist, specializing in individual, pre-marital, couples and parenting issues. My practice, though centered on relationships, includes a wide range of clients whose needs vary from LGBTQ issues, grief, career anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

If you are feeling stressed and overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or having a hard time managing emotions...if you are struggling with relationships, feeling lonely, or isolated - there is hope. Through our work together, you can learn to manage stress better, learn how to have healthy relationships and better communication, learn to understand and work through anxiety and depression, and to process and recover from traumatic experiences. As an EMDR trained therapist, I help individuals heal and grow and thrive - and am honored to take part in others’ journeys toward healing, clarity, and peace.

If you're feeling misunderstood, stressed out, or just need some additional support, I'm here and would feel honored to help you work through what you're contending with. Together we will figure out what you need, and how to have your needs met. I'm a firm believer that there is no 'one size fits all' approach to therapy and in keeping with that belief, my sessions are uniquely tailored to each individual.

Are you living the life you want to live? Or the story someone else wrote for you? The world is so loud. Whether it is society, school, work, family, social media, religion, or friends, there are so many voices telling us how we ‘should’ be. With all that noise, it can be hard to hear our own voice. Living out of alignment with ourselves can lead to feelings of anxiety, loneliness, depression and psychic pain. Our job, together, is to create a calm, safe space where you can tune in to yourself, connect with yourself, learn to accept yourself, and figure out how to live a life that honors your values and the desires of your heart.
