Life presents an array of stresses, situations, and challenges within relationships that can be overwhelming. Adapting to new circumstances disrupts our sense of normalcy. With almost four decades of experience, Dr. Petit has provided invaluable therapy and life coaching, particularly focusing on nurturing loving relationships.

A tremendous value-add to having me as your psychotherapist is based on what I term my contextual approach. In short, I see every client as unique. Hence, my therapeutic modalities are tailored specifically to individual client needs. I used all five broad-based categories in my psychotherapy namely: psychodynamic therapies, behavior therapy, cognitive therapy, humanistic therapy and integrative or holistic therapy. We believe rigidity in therapy significantly limits client results and often misses the whole picture. Other benefits include the incorporation of interpersonal and systematic approaches which combat self-defeating patterns and make allowances to firmly establish sound frameworks

There are different forms of psychotherapy. I use an eclectic approach utilizing several forms of therapy based on the needs of the client. I offer both talk therapy and therapy that does not require talking. Talk therapies involve identification of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors sustaining difficulties. I believe therapist and client form a team with the client leading the pace of the session.

Many of us go through life with little reflection. Deciding to enter into "psychotherapy" is sometimes triggered by an emotional factor such as depression or anxiety but this is not a necessary prerequisite. I have found working with clients in psychotherapy very rewarding as it provides an opportunity for enormous personal growth as they explore who they have been, who they are now, and who they truly want to be. This process can be painful and sometimes clients wonder how long it will take to feel better and then 1 day they realize they are acting and feeling different than they did before. Let's explore what is and is not working and how you might need to expand to become who you are.

Psychotherapy is designed to help you identify past issues that are currently effecting your life. Once you get to the root of the problem you can resolve it and move on in an emotionally healthy way. While this is an excellent option for some people, not all issues will require this form of intense long term work. So I recommend discussing your issues, goals, & options with your therapist to determine which approach will best meet your needs. If psychotherapy is needed I am happy to work with you for as long as it takes to reach your goal. For best results I also recommend meeting a potential therapist for a few sessions to make sure you feel comfortable and work well together.

I believe that each client has a unique and sacred story. As a result, I also understand and appreciate the reality that psychotherapy cannot always be offered with one approach incorporated. Instead, I integrate a variety of approaches and modalities that work with one another to create an approach that is as unique as you while grounded in evidenced based practice and the latest research.

In everyday life, we don't always get the chance to express how we are really feeling or share our struggles in an honest way. Psychotherapy provides a unique environment where you can share your emotions and true self and be met with empathy and the full attention of another person. In our sessions, I will be there to support you on your journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance. Through this relational approach, you'll discover patterns you want to change, increase self-awareness and gain coping skills that work for you.

As licensed psychotherapists, we provide a safe and supportive therapeutic environment for helping our clients to process emotions, traumas, and explore their personal experiences to gain insight and make progress toward their goals.

We will utilize psychotherapy techniques tailored to your specific needs to assist you in getting closer to where you would like to be.

It's almost impossible to see yourself- let me hold up a mirror and help you understand yourself and your world better.
