 Welcome to my website! Life is complex. No one is immune to life's challenges. When a problem or a confounding situation occurs, it is human nature to talk to others. This natural drive helps put situations into proportion and set a course toward action. My practice is dedicated toward assisting you to navigate difficult personal situations. This may include emotional distress, defeating patterns, eating disorders,trauma, substance abuse or life transitions. My primary responsibility is to you; establishing a safe, comfortable, and trusting environment. Our therapeutic relationship will allow you to feel free to explore any area of your thoughts, emotions, or behaviors. My commitment to you is privacy and a relationship without judgment or reprisal. |

My Philosophy Psychotherapy is a uniquely rewarding endeavor. It can be exciting, exhilarating, even fun, to try on unfamiliar perspectives, to eliminate habits and attitudes that no longer serve you, and to learn to know and care about yourself in a very different manner. At the same time, to examine and reveal your inner world, to trust another to share in that process, to make the inherently difficult effort to change—these things require considerable courage and are possible only in an environment of empathy, respect, and confidentiality where the delicate balance between encouraging growth and respecting limits is thoughtfully attended to. You are not a collection of symptoms, not a problem to be fixed, not an aberration to be re-shaped into normalcy. You are a whole person with strengths and weaknesses, hopes and fears, joys and sorrows, all meriting considered attention and worthy of full exploration. Therapy ought always be geared toward helping you—whether as an individual or a member of a family—better understand yourself, find more satisfaction in your life, and become the person you would like to be. |
