You are here on this page because you have strength in you, you...

What brings you to think of talking to someone, may have to do with personal or work relationships, with past or present trauma, with serious losses, and/or may be psychological in nature. Inner or outer obstacles may be shutting down access to inner resources and clarity, and, possibly, hope. Here, a safe therapeutic environment, where you are accompanied as you express the thoughts and feelin...

There may be times when we feel disconnected from others – or worse, ourselves; when we’re overwhelmed and crave calmness and connection; when we feel stuck and desire change but don’t know how to make a move; when we can't manage what we’re feeling or thinking, and it’s too much to carry alone. There may be times when we carry shame and/or self-doubt; when we don’t feel we fit in or are having...

It makes perfect sense that you're feeling this way. This is unprecedented. 2020 has been identified as a time of "collective trauma". We are experiencing similar anxiety provoking circumstances: crisis of health, loss of income, uncertainty, isolation, guilt and death. Divorce rates are up. Addiction statistics are sky rocketing. We're in the middle of experiencing trauma and many of us can't...

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, on the fast-track to burnout? Are you caught in a vicious cycle of worry, procrastination, and avoidance? You judge yourself at every turn, can’t meet your own expectations and keep getting in your own way. You believe your past defines you and buy into your panic. You feel unsatisfied and alone. You spend more time analyzing and ruminating than living and ca...

Whatever brought you to consider therapy, know that you are not alone. Many of us struggle to manage intense emotions, connect deeply with others, meet our goals, live up to our expectations, accept ourselves, or find meaning in life. In a safe and supportive space you are free to express yourself openly, honestly, and authentically, and together we can work to discover the ways you would like...

We live in a culture that sometimes stigmatizes our decisions to seek counseling — it’s as if our drive to reduce our suffering is, somehow, a sign of weakness. May I suggest that the exact opposite is true? Not only is it heroic to stop distracting and running away from ourselves, but a genuine act of love and self-respect. May our work together be a framework from which all concerned, myself...
