Psychotherapy has been with humankind since our origins. However, about a century ago, psychologists tried to systematize and formalize psychotherapeutic interventions and, depending on their worldview and perspectives on human nature, they created various approaches that currently exceed 400, which can be confusing and misleading. A successful psychotherapy, regardless of the lenses and title, should acknowledge that every person has a unique mind and, as a result, a unique mental world. The therapist’s job is to help the client explore this world in a supportive environment. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Mental health is just as important as physical health. If you’re feeling a bit down, or maybe you thought you heard something, you’d probably shrug it off. But, if it persists or gets worse, like you’re constantly sad, don’t want to leave the house, and constantly feeling tired or you’ve been seeing someone following and you feel that your brain is disorganized, then you need to see a mental health clinician like a psychotherapist. Even when you’re experiencing the subtle symptoms, it never hurts to have a check up. Reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to start your healing journey.

I use several research-based theories for individual counseling CBT, DBT & ACT. These theories provide practical skills that can help you gain a better understanding of yourself. By reframing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, we can reduce emotional suffering. In my work as a mental health nurse, I have had the privilege of working with many people struggling with difficult situations and trauma. My approach is to be present, empathetic, and to understand the clients’ prospective. Relationships take hard work and commitment. Giving each person a place to voice their side of the story and be heard by their partner can often iron out the wrinkles in a relationship & help couples reconnect.

My ideal clients are those who have alternative approaches to relationship, spirituality, and lifestyle.

Psychotherapy is the the term used to describe therapy that is based upon psychological principles and research and delivered, primarily, through verbal interaction. Simply put, psychotherapy is 'talk therapy". It is the interaction between you and a highly trained, caring, compassionate therapist who is willing to walk with you through whatever challenges you might be facing. Psychotherapy can happen either in an individual basis, with couples, with families or in larger groups.
