I am very client-centered when it comes to psychotherapy, but that does not mean my only theoretical approach is client-centered psychotherapy. Despite my many approaches to psychotherapy, you, as the client, take center stage in every therapy session. I want whatever happens in therapy to be a unique fit for you and your therapy needs. I consider the client-therapist relationship to be very important in our work together. With trust, we can build a stronger foundation for positive changes to settle.

Psychotherapy is a journey into yourself. It is a treat to take time, slow down and understand yourself. We all have a story. The story we have written about ourselves defines who we are . In psychotherapy I help people see and understand the story they tell themselves. The problem is that the story we tell ourselves can be filled with obstacles, negativity, and darkness. I can help you rewrite your story so that you can find resources to overcome those obstacles, light in the dark places, and ultimatly a less burdensome way into the future.

The issues we deal with throughout our lives are based in a myriad of beliefs that evolved as a result of childhood experiences. As a psychotherapist, I guide you into an exploration of the beliefs and actions that create limitations and blocks to healthy relationships with ourselves and others. If you have a belief that says "I'm not good enough" you will create, unconsciously, situations and relationships that enforce that belief. Therapy is about transforming these limiting beliefs...opening you up to all life has to offer.

Freud is the father of psychotherapy. However, many things have changed since his day and many of his theories are no longer practiced in therapy. One thing we believe at Gateway that is still true is that the past does often affect the present of people. The past need not define us in the present or determine our future. But it can give us awareness as to why we both do and react to some things now. We work on what we call here the back end and the front end issues to change the things in the present the client wants to change. This tends to result in more permanent behavior change.

When clients graduate from treatment, they take with them a box full of "tools", such as effective anger management techniques, avoiding confrontations that lead to negative expressions of anger, resolving conflict peacefully and quietly, making the right decisions in every aspect of life, and perseverance to always build skills against life's problems and apply them consistently.

Psychotherapy or counseling can be brief and focused on a particular issue.
