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 "talk therapy" is a therapy that works by helping individuals express their concerns or difficulties and working with them on finding ways to cope with their current stressors. Therapy sessions can be conducted individually or in a group. Research has shown that most people that receive consistent psychotherapy with trained clinicians show a decrease in their current symptoms and an increase in their quality of life.

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.

Psychotherapy is a very special experience that develops through the confidential and honest relationship with a therapist. I have a passion for helping people to not only decrease personal struggle and pain, but to allow the experience to be a pathway to gain personal strength, self-knowledge, and the capacity for self-love and compassion. I provide very useable treatment that can be applied to daily life on the regular basis to develop greater balance and contentment in life.

Psychotherapy or counseling can be brief and focused on a particular issue. Sometimes it can take the form of Life Coaching, focusing on creating and reaching goals and helping you to gain clarity and make better decisions. It can also be a vehicle for helping someone to examine his life more fully and gain a better understanding of what drives or motivates him.

Psychotherapy is a general term that describes what therapists do. But when do well it focuses on the process of therapy and not just a quick fix or answer to your problems. Most people that come into my office know what they need to do but can't seem to do it. Psychotherapy involves both of us looking into what is getting in the way of you making these changes. I always tell my clients that I trust their instincts and if they do not or cannot do what is needed there is a reason why. Uncovering that reason and learning to listen to your instincts is what I believe psychotherapy is at its core.

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.

We approach the treatment of mental Illness by encouraging the exploration of unresolved and deeply rooted conflicts, often of an unconscious that may lead the person to behave in rigid and self-defeating ways, by questioning the veracity and effectiveness of distorted ways of thinking and perceiving the world and by empowering the person to modify behaviors that perpetuate psychopathology and emotional disturbance. We also include life-coaching techniques to help people set attainable goals based on personal values, abilities and interests.
