Psychotherapy can mean different things for different professionals. For me, it's another word for therapy or counseling - the process of sitting down with a warm and skilled professional to figure out how to achieve your life goals. and improve your relationships. Don't let the word "psychotherapy" scare you away from what can often be a powerful tool for improving your life. Trust your instinct about who to choose, and don't hesitate to stop therapy if you don't feel a connection with your therapist. The truth is that unless you really believe your therapist cares about your life, sophisticated therapy interventions and techniques are worthless. Remember to look for that connection!

You look for psychotherapy when something is wrong, when you are fed up with not being able to get something you need.

Here's what it comes down to: We all bump/hit/slam into obstacles that hold us back from creating meaningful, vibrant lives. And we all need effective help sometimes. What makes therapy the most effective? (1) The quality of the connection and trust you have with your therapist, and (2) your therapist's level of experience. Helping people get traction to get beyond those obstacles is what I've been doing for more than 20 years, and it's what I love to do. I bring together different approaches to suit your needs, and I’m compassionate, straightforward, and authentic. Let's find out if we'll work well together.

My first task in psychotherapy is to provide a safe and secure environment. I provide my clients with care, calmness, respect and stability to help address life challenges in new ways. Being non-judgmental, open-minded, empathetic and listening with respect helps set the stage for the deeper work that needs to be done. I help my clients evaluate whether their present life choices are providing what he or she wants. I also help my clients become aware of and transform the mental, emotional, interpersonal and/or behavioral strategies that cause his/her suffering. My approach to psychotherapy is to help clients become what he/she wants to become, to be better equipped to deal with life’s challenges, and to be in a greater state of health and harmony.

I think of psychotherapy as a healing process in which you, as an individual or a couple, discover more effective ways to deal with the unique issues and challenges you face.

What is psychotherapy? Some people say “psychotherapy is the treatment to work on your personal situation”, and others say “psychotherapy is the place for you to talk about your problem and your therapist will work with you to figure out the better way to manage it” Well…both of them are correct. When you seek therapy, that does not mean you are weak. In fact, attending therapy is a brave behavior as you allow yourself to be vulnerable in front of another person (your therapist), and you are willing to touch on some undesirable characteristics about yourself and work on that. By doing so, you are getting closer to your true self and make your life more beautiful than ever.

Psychotherapy is sacred work, and I hold a very safe and honest space for people to show up authentically. I use different modalities, but the most important factor is to have deep compassion and let the person know you care. Humor is essential, and there is as much laughing as crying in my office. I have been doing this work for nearly 30 years, and I am still in awe of the capacity people have to change.

My approach to counseling revolves around the idea that our dissatisfaction with life is rooted in the reality that the world we exist in is greatly removed from the world we want to live in. In therapy we will learn to adjust our expectations of our ideal world, but more importantly we will discover our ability to change the world we live in. Through this journey we will become better acquainted with your resilience and potential!

Many clients feel comfortable discussing their issues and working together with me to rethinking how they would like to change make changes in their lives.

I use talk therapy and mindfulness to help clients identify negative habits and develop new healthy and effective habits.

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.
