Find a Therapist in Monongahela, Pennsylvania.

I provide a compassionate, respectful approach to psychotherapy that values the uniqueness and value of each individual. People typically come to me when they are going through transitions in their lives, are stressed and overwhelmed, or have had things happen in their past that continue to affect them. My approach is flexible and tailored to your personality style and needs. Often my approach to therapy can help you discover new ways to understand yourself and others, heal deep emotional hurts, build self-esteem, and find more healthy ways of coping with problems so you can live a richer, more meaningful life.

“The Golden Rule” can be a helpful guide to psychotherapy: treating others as you would like to be treated, with gentleness, pacing, and respect. If a counseling session is likened to conversing with a knowledgeable advisor on the doorstep of your home, psychotherapy can be like inviting that advisor into the “parlor” or “living room” of your inner world based on trust, at-ease-ness, and confidence in your advisor’s insight. My approach to psychotherapy is interactive and strengths-based, starting with cognitive (thought-based) or behavioral coping skills, and moving into awareness of family of origin themes and the impact of past trauma when needed to activate more enduring personal growth in the client.

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.
