Psychotherapy is a process of a therapist working directly with you, most often talking together, in a way that helps relieve anxiety, depression, compulsions, phobias, and other mental health concerns. There are a wide range of techniques used. I use some of the most researched and proven methods - Cognitive Psychotherapy and Mindful Awareness. Essentially this is a way of teaching you how to better understand you thoughts and feelings, and to train your mind to work differently, in a way that allows you to be at your best - more happy, at peace, and more effective in you life.

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.

Are you interested in getting relief and finding solutions? Would you like to feel good about your life and relationships? I use empirical research and science across multiple disciplines to show clients just like you how you can get real-world, tangible, time-tested, and long-lasting, results that lead to optimal mental and relational health. Mental and relational health is not just a reduction in symptoms and problems. Instead, they are increases in self-control and empowerment, as well as acceptance, freedom, kindness, compassion, safety, and understanding - for yourself and others.

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.

Psychotherapy is one of the areas that I specialize in. Using a psychoanalysis technique called "bodywork" I can help the individual discover connections of present symptoms and feelings with past experiences. Bodywork allows the individual to experience the affect or body sensations of their presenting problem and connect them with the corresponding emotions. Bodywork can also show where the genesis of the presenting problem lies in their past experiences. A break-through happens when the individual discovers these patterns and understands the present problem is connected to root issue that has not been dealt with and needs to be processed in order for growth and healing to occur.

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.

ACT (pronounced "Act", aka Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) is an evidenced based practice of learning how to observe and be with your thoughts, identify your feelings, and take committed action toward the things that are most important you. It's a form of psychotherapy that is often used sparingly by therapists as the training and practice encourages the therapist to experience the benefits of ACT for themselves. Know that many of the practices and skills we learn will be ones I've used myself and aren't robotic, rote, clinical mumbo jumbo.
