INDIVIDUAL THERAPY​

​

Individuals turn to a therapist when

they feel overwhelmed, stuck, uncertain, or not like their usual self.  For some, clear contexts give rise to these difficulties, such as:

  • Family Conflicts

  • Grief

  • Identity Crises

  • Illness or Injury

  • Infertility

  • Intimate Relationships

  • Parenting

  • Professional Crises

  • Stage of Life Transitions​

  • Substance Abuse​

For others, the origin of the difficulties is not in one's awareness and might be more protracted than acute.

 

In a confidential, attentive, and non-judgmental process, I help individuals develop through these difficulties.  Together we listen to and reflect upon the feelings, thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors associated with these struggles.  Individual therapy can not only deepen self-understanding, it can also improve the manageability and felt experience of daily life. ​

COUPLES THERAPY

​

​"Love is not a bargain, it's a bond."

--Sue Johnson, PhD

​

As a couples therapist, I facilitate a process in which a couple steps beyond reactivity into relational awareness and behavior.

​

Like individual therapy, couples therapy can not only deepen understanding but also improve the couple's felt experience.  As with individual therapy, known stressors prompt some couples to reach out for help, whereas for others the origin of their difficulties is less apparent at the outset.

​

I listen to, express curiosity about, and observe patterns of interaction, which are attempts to meet relational needs.  These are the needs for safety, security, being seen, and being soothed that each of us has throughout our lifespan.​​ With a desire and commitment to change painful patterns of interaction, it is possible to construct new patterns and heal from relational suffering.
