You might be facing a life transition, a major diagnosis, or a struggle at work. You might have a relationship with a friend, family member or colleague that’s not thriving. You might even feel stuck. Your curiosity about psychotherapy is a courageous step forward. APPROACH I’m an existential-phenomenological therapist who focuses on humanistic and insight-oriented therapies. People’s struggles often relate to the meanings being assigned to situations, leading to feeling stuck, unfulfilled, or overwhelmed. My approach helps people deal with the problems they’re facing by exploring their experiences and the meanings they assign. This exploration addresses the issues people are currently facing, creating a fuller, happier life. What does that look like in practice? You’ll let me know what you care about, what brought you to therapy, and what you want in your life. Then, together, we’ll explore those areas by discussing your experiences, choices, and actions. Through this inquiry, we’ll gain insights and awareness that will lead to new conversations, interpretations, and actions. I'd love to meet you. Contact me for a free 30 minute consultation. CORE PRINCIPLES * Psychotherapy is a life-enhancing exploration that uncovers conversations and patterns that get in the way of having a fulfilling life. You don’t have to suffer. * I’m committed that people be able to relate to each other with love and respect, in a way that avoids regrets. * I strive to provide a safe, supportive, non-judgmental environment. * I’m dedicated to my own rigorous ongoing personal and professional growth so that you receive the best of care.
