Psychotherapy for Individuals and Couples

Growth and healing are possible.

Unwanted symptoms are like signposts pointing us toward the wound, and ultimately towards healing.

Together we will work to alleviate symptoms, address underlying causes, increase self-awareness, strengthen your relationships and promote deep, lasting change. We will examine your symptoms in the larger context of your life to uncover old scripts and patterns that may be keeping you from growth and wholeness. Therapy will teach you the skills necessary to live with more confidence, awareness, and creativity, as well as grow your capacity to effectively navigate the normal ups and downs of relationships.

“The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places.”

— Ernest Hemingway

  • My Approach

    Unwanted symptoms, whether that be self-defeating behaviors, states of mind or body, can take us by surprise, leaving us overwhelmed and perplexed. Debilitating anxiety, depression, feelings of inadequacy, stuck-ness and toxic beliefs about ourselves keep us trapped in unwanted patterns and sabotage our chances to lead fulfilling lives.

    We devise all sorts of creative strategies to try and manage pain and discomfort by fleeing to distractions and other self-defeating behaviors. While these initially offer us escape from life’s difficulties, they eventually lead to more disconnection and suffering. Relief comes when we gather the courage to engage our pain with kindness rather than run from it.
