Specialties: Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, PTSD, Adjustment Disorder,

Introduction

People come to see me when they feel stuck and have had enough. I help parents help their children; help couples and families get closer and happier; and in general help people successfully resolve issues such as: stress, anxiety, adjustment to new life circumstances (relocation, family changes), relationship issues (divorce, extra-marital affairs, conflict), and dealing with difficult family members. I also work with people interested in specific skill building such as: stress/anxiety management, assertiveness and dealing with conflict, communication, and more. I focus on people's strengths through a resilience focused model (as opposed to a weakness or "pathology" focus). This is a focused short term therapy model with a practical focus on helping people find effective and lasting strategies to deal with their challenges. When appropriate, therapy might be longer term. I also offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. My work is both holistic and systemic: the whole person and their environment. I also have experience in making sense of diagnostic testing in complex cases, and helping families coordinate care between professionals, agencies, etc. I also offer psychedelic integration following experiences ("trips") on psychedelics/entheogens (eg. Psilocybin, MDMA, LSD).
