Psychotherapy can provide the skills and support you need to move forward in your life, to find your way through difficult and painful transitions, to reduce disturbing symptoms that prevent you from living your life in joy, peace and connection, to be the creative person you were once were or want to be, to happily relate to others in your life, to live a peaceful life free of overwhelming stresses, to overcome addictive behavior that sabotages careers, relationships and life satisfaction, to learn healthy sleep patterns that research is indicating is so crucial to good health, to reconnect to or develop a spiritual life, to live life with compassion, and to enjoy life.

My approach to therapy is warm, caring and straight-forward. As a licensed psychotherapist with over 20 years experience, I specialize in helping my clients overcome depression and anxiety, increase self esteem, work through grief and develop healthy relationships. I am results oriented. My goal is to help you start feeling better as soon as possible.

If you are struggling in life or feeling stuck and wanting to change, I offer a place for you to explore, gain insight, and experience growth and healing. I help people to identify negative patterns in their lives and in their relationships -- and then I help them to change those patterns. In the words of the Serenity Prayer, I help people have 'the serenity to accept the things they cannot change, the courage to change the things they can, and the wisdom to know the difference.'

I provide brief solutions-focused psychotherapy to help clients assess personal and professional functioning, clarify goals, and strengthen social and emotional skills. I specialize in brief online relationship counseling. Online counseling allows clients to seek help as needed, engage in therapy at a schedule that's convenient to them, and keep their counselor as they progress through life. I work with LGBTQ and hetero clients on individual, couple, and alternative relationship concerns. Clients explore issues that impact their professional and personal relationships, including communication, power dynamics, and intimacy. I accept US$ and cryptocurrencies.

As human beings, we are wired for healing and growth. In the context of a safe, warm, attuned therapeutic relationship we can face emotions and situations that seem too overwhelming to face alone. My style is collaborative, respectful, and works in the 'here and now' with a belief in the human capacity for transforming difficult situations into opportunities for growth. Psychotherapy can help you connect with yourself and others, develop resilience to handle life's challenges, and assist you in navigating life's transitions.

The process of therapy is and should be tailored to each individual's life experience. Research shows that clients in therapy, who seek assistance to deal with a whole range of issues, challenges, thoughts, and emotions, can experience a positive benefit. In our collaborative work, we will complete a comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment, where we look at many life factors that may be contributing to those challenges for which therapy is being considered. After an assessment, we will have a clearer idea of core values, possible goals and many ideas on designing a flexible plan that is easy to understand and use to bring about the transformation desired.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.
