Individual Therapy

Something needs to change.

Do you have a complaint about your life that you’ve tried to change but cannot? We all go through this at some point in our lives, and, sometimes, change is hard to accomplish.

You may contemplate changing jobs, but you are afraid of venturing off in a new direction.

Establishing the right relationship may be difficult, and you keep repeating the same mistakes as before.

Personal goals are easy to talk about, but you continually fail to accomplish anything you set for yourself.

Low self-esteem prevents you from being the best you can be. There are challenges in your life that you simply cannot overcome.

With the right help, change is possible.

Working with a skilled professional can help you bring about the change you want to make.

We will work collaboratively to identify your priorities and therapy goals. We also can leave room for curiosity about thoughts and feelings that surface spontaneously or from imagination, dreams, and daydreams.

I encourage you to say whatever is on your mind. It’s about learning how to listen, sit with uncomfortable feelings, and use them to guide deeper self-understanding and acceptance.

Maybe the deeper pain for you is about how hard you’ve worked to avoid feeling. You can learn to accept and integrate the different parts of yourself, even those parts you’ve put into hiding out of guilt or shame.

Opening space for all these parts helps people heal and change.

Gaining understanding results in change.

We may explore your history to understand better how you’ve learned to cope with adversity. Although these coping methods may have served you in the past, you may find that they keep you stuck now.

Meeting at least once a week can help you make the most of therapy. During this time, we will talk about how things are going for you in therapy.

The moment-to-moment experience between therapist and patient can create a learning lab for understanding current and past relationships.

As a result, resolution can occur, and change becomes a reality.

Let’s find out what is holding you back.
