Psychotherapy supports a client in becoming the best version of themselves,while looking at past events in life to learn from them. The idea is not to blame or stay stuck in things we can not change, but use the past, whatever has happened, to empower us today and tomorrow. My role is to hold a safe space for you to work on and process where you have been, where you are, and where you are going.

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.

Psychotherapy is another way of talking about psychological therapy. When clients come to me, my main initial goal is to understand their world, to hear their story. Everyone is different, and I do not want to assume that you are like me, I need to assume that you are like you and understand what that means. Once I can understand your world, then solving the issues that you have may involve working through issues, problem solving , or talking about strategies to work on in order to have better relationships.
