Psychotherapy Services

INDIVIDUAL

Many different factors motivate one to seek therapy. We all experience difficulties for which we are unprepared.Regardless of the specific catalyst, individuals typically wind up gaining many far-reaching benefits from their therapy work. Therapy promotes the self-actualization process - helping one determine who they are and then using that knowledge to transform their experience in such a way to live a richer and more rewarding life. I believe that we all have an innate aptitude for growth and therapy is a place for individuals to access this capacity. A positive therapy experience will provide one the safety and respect needed to explore their experiences and feelings, develop new skills, and practice new ways of being. I will collaborate with clients to identify and set specific goals and together we will work toward meaningful change.


COUPLES / Families

When working with couples and families, the relationship between the individuals is the focus of therapy. I work with all parties to enhance communication, resolve conflict, and deepen bonds. The goal of successful therapy with couples and families is to broaden each member’s understanding of the other and to use this information to increase insight and empathy in hopes of strengthening the relationship. I often encourage all members of the couple/family unit to seek their own individual therapy in order to further these goals.
