Choosing a therapist is a very personal decision. To me, therapy becomes a place where two people come together to embark on a journey of personal discovery and growth. I believe healing and transformation occur in the context of a shared therapeutic experience – of a “you and me” – through your experiences and my expertise, we will chart new pathways to fulfilled living and relating. From finding relief and feeling better to gaining insight and developing oneself, you will not be alone. Too often, we find ourselves getting from one day to the next by going through the motions, having to leave behind aspects of ourselves and our experiences that life doesn’t seem to have time for in its busy schedule. As your therapist, our therapeutic relationship embraces all aspects of what we might find, value, and cultivate along the journey to better living. • I practice from a relationally-oriented perspective and interpersonal approach. This means that the way we come to experience, formulate, and understand our interactions will provide an essential catalyst for change (and growth), as new or alternative ways of experiencing and relating (to oneself and others) become possible and attainable. In other words, by understanding what goes on between us (therapist and client) and within us (our internal experiences while working together), we invite healing and growth to occur on a deeply moving, experiential level that leads to lasting change and lasting relief. In this way, I believe that therapy works best as a co-created and co-negotiated process between therapist and client. • While I maintain a general practice, my areas of expertise and specialization include: trauma, dissociation, psychosis, personality disorders, loss/grief, anxiety, depression/mood disorders, and other chronic issues.
