Being involved in therapy helps us in a number of ways. First, it gives us a listening ear to work through the day to day challenges that we all face. But beyond that, psychotherapy allows us the opportunity to examine the "beliefs" that we carry about ourselves, about other people, about the world around us, and about God. These "core beliefs" are what shape us, drive us, or at time restrict us like heavy chains. Some of these beliefs are based on the "truth," and others are based on "lies," and must be replaced by the truth. "You can't," "you won't," "you'll never," are common lies that many people carry around like chains. Therapy can help to get freedom from those chains and lies.

My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that by uncovering the source of our problems, we can work together to heal and find a sense of confidence and clarity. I provide unique and tailored psychoanalytic therapies to help my clients make sense of their lives and better understand the source of their issues. When the source is identified, a path to wellness can be established. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment, free of judgment and pressure, where my clients can look into their emotions, experiences, and behaviors to gain insight and clarity. I believe that understanding our emotions is the key to unlocking our potential and finding relief and healing.

My approach is to work collaboratively with clients using a holistic model of therapy which entails a blending of Eastern and Western modalities. For example, training in meditation, yoga, Tai Chi, proper exercise, a nutritious, science-based diet and maintaining proper sleep hygiene. Also, including talk therapy can then help to reveal core values and issues. Mindfulness training benefits clients in observing clearly thoughts and behaviours. Clients benefit greatly through the use of evidence based interventions by developing the skills needed to evaluate thought patterns and overcome destructive patterns.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

I believe the best psychotherapy is an eclectic approach that the client drives with their own treatment plan goals and needs. Psychotherapy is not a ‘one size fits all’ endeavor, so I believe that client benefit from a therapist that is trained in various types of therapy. I have received training in Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Art Therapy, Functional Family Therapy, Trauma Informed Care, Transactional Analysis, Person Centered Therapy, and I’m familiar with many different theoretical orientations. Overall, I take a Humanistic perspective and I believe that people inherently have the solutions inside of them – they just need assistance finding those solutions.

Psychotherapy is not anything to be scared of, or intimidated about. Seeking out a therapist or being in therapy isn't an admission of weakness or some kind of character flaw. Therapy is a collaborative process and a partnership with someone who is trained in and experienced with facilitating personal growth. And in this process, you are in the driver's seat. Our minds and emotions and relationships involve complicated machinery just like our bodies do and in the same way a medical doctor helps you stay physically healthy, Psychotherapy is designed to help you be and stay mentally and socially strong, and continually in a position to take on life's many challenges as your best self.

My approach to psychotherapy is mostly relational. I take a family systems approach that addresses relationships in my clients' lives and improves their functioning for better health and happiness. Clients under my care learn how to unilaterally improve the functioning of a relationship through boundaries and self-confrontation. The result is individuals and relationships that thrive.
