Evidence-based psychotherapy can greatly benefit clients suffering with a wide range of mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, grief/bereavement, stress, trauma, and other big life challenges. My approach to psychotherapy is always evidence-based and collaborative. I take pride in my integrity in only offering my services to clients whom I feel confident I can help; and I am passionate about finding creative ways to tailor proven methods to fit my clients' unique needs. With the right "fit" between the therapist and client, psychotherapy can be very effective in helping clients make lasting and meaningful changes.

Are you interested in getting relief and finding solutions? Would you like to feel good about your life and relationships? I use empirical research and science across multiple disciplines to show clients just like you how you can get real-world, tangible, time-tested, and long-lasting, results that lead to optimal mental and relational health. Mental and relational health is not just a reduction in symptoms and problems. Instead, they are increases in self-control and empowerment, as well as acceptance, freedom, kindness, compassion, safety, and understanding - for yourself and others.

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.

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.

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 overassume 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.

Are you sick of some persistent feeling, thought, behavior, or situation? There is a way out. Your time and money are valuable, thus I use the latest accelerated approaches for change. I use two key elements in therapy: (1) A non-judgmental approach towards your feelings and (2) a process of cause-and-effect discovery. Once my clients accept their "feeling selves" and discover the sources of their current unwanted psychological experiences, they usually experience a "felt shift" -- a lasting transformation that sets them free.

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), skills from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness to treat anxiety, depression, trauma and grief. My style is supportive and straightforward. My approach starts with a focus on understanding specific symptoms, triggers, and thinking/coping patterns, and then teaching a variety of coping skills to help you work through these and to resolve painful emotions, life events or further triggers that may have brought you to therapy in the first place.

Psychotherapy is a process of a therapist working directly with you, most often talking together, in a way that helps relieve anxiety, depression, compulsions, phobias, and other mental health concerns. There are a wide range of techniques used. I use some of the most researched and proven methods - Cognitive Psychotherapy and Mindful Awareness. Essentially this is a way of teaching you how to better understand you thoughts and feelings, and to train your mind to work differently, in a way that allows you to be at your best - more happy, at peace, and more effective in you life.

I have a comprehensive approach to therapy that includes a person's psychological, biological, social, and spiritual being. My focus is on internal dynamics as well as what is influencing a person in the environment. I view people as having strengths that can be utilized both internally and externally. Therapy is a collaboration between the therapist and the client who work together to foster change and healing.

The process utilized here is an eclectic one. That is an approach that identifies the treatment method and modalities that best fit the client's unique needs, personality, and circumstances. In addition there is a emphasis on education about the presenting problem and how early life experiences played a role in how the brain organized those experiences to account for current feelings, thoughts and reactions.

Psychotherapy is one of the areas that I specialize in. Using a psychoanalysis technique called "bodywork" I can help the individual discover connections of present symptoms and feelings with past experiences. Bodywork allows the individual to experience the affect or body sensations of their presenting problem and connect them with the corresponding emotions. Bodywork can also show where the genesis of the presenting problem lies in their past experiences. A break-through happens when the individual discovers these patterns and understands the present problem is connected to root issue that has not been dealt with and needs to be processed in order for growth and healing to occur.

New Birth Counseling utilizes psychotherapy as a way of helping clients achieve their goals, while helping them get over their obstacles so that they can love life again on their terms.

Therapy is not a one size fits all experience. Though I extensively trained to understand specific theories of practice, I utilize a "prescriptive" approach. This means I will adapt to your needs in treatment. Therapy is co-created, it is relational, and it is in the therapeutic relationship where we seek personal growth to apply outside the therapy room. I work with adult individual clients who are grieving a significant loss, LGBTIQ+ adults, adults with creative blocks, neurodivergent adults, people pleasers, those recovering from trauma, and adults burnt out about their work.

My psychotherapy approach relies on a personal growth model that is client-centered. I focus on client needs and utilize approaches that will result in desired change. The goal is to empower clients by teaching them skills and strategies that will allow them to have victory over their concerns and to have a meaningful existence. My objective is to teach clients to be proactive about their lives, self-sufficient and establish a healthy interdependence. It is my intention that clients increase their self-confidence and self-efficacy to attain their fullest potential and lead enriching lives.

In laymen's terms, psychotherapy is the opportunity to talk about and process your problems or challenges with a trained therapist. Sometimes, we don't need someone to try to fix our problems for us, which is what most of our friends try to do when we talk about them. Sometimes we need someone who will listen and be a sounding board so we can think through and process for ourselves. I want to support you with your goals and your needs and we can make a therapy plan (psychotherapy or other types) that you feel will best suit your needs. Most importantly, I provide that safe environment for you to be able to be vulnerable, talk about, and process whatever is on your heart and in your mind.

My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that by uncovering the source of our problems, we can work together to heal and find a sense of confidence and clarity. I provide unique and tailored psychoanalytic therapies to help my clients make sense of their lives and better understand the source of their issues. When the source is identified, a path to wellness can be established. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment, free of judgment and pressure, where my clients can look into their emotions, experiences, and behaviors to gain insight and clarity. I believe that understanding our emotions is the key to unlocking our potential and finding relief and healing.
