To see your life with new eyes - that is the breakthrough, and that is the path.

Finding a therapist can be a daunting task when you are already feeling overwhelmed.

You want support and you want to make real changes in your life.

You are looking for someone real.  Someone who isn’t going to waste your time.

And someone who isn’t going to just let you talk and say very little in return.

(Those types of therapists drive me crazy, too.)

I know you need a safe place to come to terms with how you’ve been feeling.

And I know you need insight.  To make sense of how you are feeling and why.

But I know what you want most is to change it.  To grow.  To stop repeating the same patterns.  To show up differently in your relationships.

This is why my approach is focused on what actually helps people change. So you don’t have to be in therapy for years to feel a difference.

I know starting therapy can feel like facing a giant mountain to climb, but change is more like dominos. Sometimes all it takes is one big shift to cascade transformation across your life.

With 15+ years of experience, I get to the heart of the matter quickly and focus on the core issues you want to resolve.  We stay focused on these issues in our work together so as not to drift away from the reasons you sought help.  And if preferred, I provide longer sessions to ensure we get deeper and go further faster.

“When you are in a rebirth, you don’t know you are being reborn.

All you know is that something inside of you is dying.

That is the only thing that feels real.”

You reach a point where you just can’t do it anymore. Something has to change. And what makes that so painful is that often what needs to die is old ways of being in the world that kept you safe. Not strategies you consciously created, but ones you had to rely on starting early in life.

  • Feeling emotionally responsible for everyone else.

  • Feeling like the only one who is awake and paying attention.

  • Distancing yourself from your emotions only to be flooded by them sometimes.

  • Having to be highly driven, taking it all on, and being a perfectionist.

  • Being more vigilant of how other people are feeling over yourself; people-pleasing.

  • Patterns of self-doubt and second guessing your decisions.

  • Not asserting your own needs in your relationships.

  • Suppressing feelings rather than feeling them.

  • Steeling yourself against vulnerability and avoiding shame and disappointment at all costs.

  • Feeling perpetually dropped in your relationship.

  • Turning on yourself; beating yourself up.

  • Lashing out at others.

You want to get clear on what is needed in order for you to get to the other side.

You want focused work - not therapy that loses track of why you came in the first place.

You want to feel different.
