I provide relationship therapy for individual and couples as well as general psychotherapy for individuals.
Relationship Therapy for Couples:
I am certified in Imago Relationship Therapy and have training in other couples therapy models. In my work with couples, I draw upon a variety of methods to help you close the gap between where you are and where you want to be.
I will provide you with skills so you can communicate in a different and effective way with your partner. You will learn to respect differences and redirect chronic frustrations into requests of what you want.
We often end up with a partners who seemed perfect in the beginning but eventually become unwilling or unable to do what we need in order for us to be happy. If you are at that point, your relationship needs some work. The success of the work I do with couples is based on more than understanding. You will learn skills that, if practiced, have the potential to transform your relationship. The longer you wait, the harder it is, so please don't hesitate to call.
Relationship Therapy for Individuals:
I also specialize in relationship therapy for individuals. Together, we will look at recurring patterns in your relationships and what you do that contributes to those patterns. You will be able to identify changes you can make that will help you better sustain a committed long-term relationship.
General Psychotherapy for Individuals:
In our complex world, it is not uncommon for people to seek professional help when faced with stressful issues or changes. However, therapy can also be beneficial when things are stable and going well. I believe that the use of therapy is a wise adjunct to the many resources available to each of us to insure our well-being. The experience of therapy can help you gain perspective and move forward consciously.
Drawing on my 13 years of experience in the field, I work with people in diverse life transitions as well as individuals dealing with stress, grief, anxiety, depression, and addiction. I tailor my approach to fit each individual’s specific issues and goals.
Addiction:
I have experience with and enjoy working with those in recovery from substance use, abuse, and addiction. I am knowledgeable about and encourage participation in 12-step programs which can greatly accelerate the therapy process.
