Psychotherapy gives you a place that exists for one purpose: to understand you. Away from the roles you play and the people you look after, you can finally turn toward your own experience and say what's true. That alone can be a relief; over time, it becomes much more. My role is to listen with care and to help you notice what you've overlooked: the recurring themes, the feelings that don't add up, the desires and fears you may not have put into words before. Much of what shapes us runs quietly underneath the surface, and bringing it into the open is what allows things to shift. The trust we build together is part of how the work heals: being met with serious attention and care.

Everyone needs help sometimes. Life's challenges can sometimes feel too big or too many to face alone. I think of therapy as a partnership where you can tell me your story not only to feel relief because you don't have to carry it alone, but also so that you can resolve your dilemmas, or even become aware of a life pattern that has stopped you from getting what you have always longed for. I would like to join with you to help you face whatever challenges are before you so that you can develop the self-support and confidence to get through your difficulties, or maybe even to develop a more secure way of being for the very first time. It's possible, and you don't have to do it by yourself.

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.

I offer one on one counseling for people seeking the depth of insight and self awareness only psychotherapy can offer. We will look at family patterns and life experiences that shaped and conditioned your responses today, while to helping to heal and update your image of yourself today. We will bring humor, insight, tools, new attitudes and perspectives to help you cope with your past and bring you into a new life in the present - healthy, happy, whole, on your terms.

Psychotherapy is a journey toward understanding yourself and how you relate to others. Many people are surprised to discover parts of themselves that were relatively unexplored and misunderstood. As we move along the process of self-exploration and self-understanding, the goal is to have greater awareness of our intentions, our feelings, our perceptions and how those thoughts and feelings drive our behavior. We also work toward greater self-acceptance and self-compassion as we work toward becoming better versions of ourselves.

I am a Counseling Psychologist, therapist who uses Psychotherapy as a healing process, directed in assisting persons who deal with difficulties of daily life functioning. The initial consultation can focus on identifying the immediate problem and a solution. The following sessions are directed to longer term goals and a resolution. The treatment model in your therapeutic process is best tailored to suit your personal, emotional needs.

My clients often find me easy to talk to and say they feel comfortable with me, trusting quickly. This can make the psychotherapeutic process easier and more effective for my clients, especially if they are nervous or don’t know what to expect. Therapy with me can range from just talking casually with each other, leading to insights, increased self awareness, and processing through emotional issues, or it could be more intensive deeper therapy like EMDR.

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.
