Therapist Overview
People come to therapy for a variety of reasons, but ultimately the purpose of meeting a therapist is to explore challenges that are bothering you or keeping you from being engaged in important areas of your life. In this process, we will work with elements from your history and present life to detect and explore patterns that may be preventing you from being who you would like to be. Through the work we do together, you will develop more insight into your conscious and unconscious processes. I utilize talk therapy integrated from various therapeutic backgrounds. As appropriate, I also employ body psychotherapy, expressive arts, role play, psychodrama, and Sandplay techniques. These techniques can increase your self-awareness, develop coping skills, and help you improve communication skills. Together, we will explore what works best for you. Entering into therapy is a brave act. Facing yourself is difficult, but also imperative to coping with change, feeling better, improving relations
