Counseling is an important way to invest in your health and future. For some, counseling can be a way to work through difficult life seasons, including career transition, parenting or relationship stress, divorce, or grief/loss. For others who may have a history of abuse, depression, anxiety, or other condition, counseling can help one learn to manage symptoms and to pursue a life of joy and contentment. For couples or families, for whom old ways of connecting and resolving problems are no longer working, psychotherapy provides a way to explore how a situation began and to develop new ways of resolving difficulties.
My approach to counseling is best characterized as an integrative approach that incorporates psychodynamic, Adlerian, and interpersonal traditions. The counseling relationship is a foundation for the work that follows. My clients can expect a professional relationship marked by respect, encouragement, and timely challenges to promote growth and change.
One of the things I've learned, both personally and professionally, is that pain is almost always temporary and often signals an opportunity for change. Even amidst circumstances which are difficult and uncertain, people have a remarkable ability to overcome. The ability to overcome does not deny reality - it allows us to courageously confront reality.
