In my way of working with you, I lay my personal issues aside for our time together and give myself plenty of internal space to resonate with you on a gut level. As I hear your story in words I also hear it in feelings. A good therapist puts these two narratives together, the spoken one and the emotional one, in getting to an accurate understanding of you. When I merge this understanding with my training in psychology, which is extensive, I'm able to reflect purposefully with you about what might be wrong; about "how" you're hurting.
As our work proceeds, the therapy hour becomes an emotionally safe space for us to begin finally to make sense of difficult feelings. Old compulsions come to have less power, symptoms improve, and a new way of being emerges. It becomes easier to make forward movement in life, to leave behind difficult or painful relationships and habits, and to feel free.
I maintain my office in a comfortable residential-style setting in southwest Oklahoma City. I generally work in 55-minute sessions once or twice weekly, or every-other week, during daytime and evening hours. Our work together will be focused, empathically-informed, and solution-oriented. My aim is to get you well. My office files your insurance for you.

NSSR is one of few clinical training programs in the U.S. that, in the interest of emotional accuracy in the therapist's work with clients, encourages an extensive personal training therapy for its candidates, which I undertook in New York City and Dallas. I'm also a bit of a brain science nerd.

When two people sit down together in the privacy of the therapy hour, there is a natural aligning of the mental process between them; this is called co-process. My training as a therapist allows me to slow down, observe, and use the information present in this alignment; it's a rich source of psychological and emotional information, and it helps me accurately and fairly quickly understand you.
