Many people have ideas about how therapy should look or feel based on what they have seen in movies or tv, and some of those ideas can be scary or intimidating. Therapy should be a safe space where you feel comfortable sharing and exploring your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with someone who offers you empathy, authenticity, and acceptance. I believe that clients are the experts in their lives and will work collaboratively with you to explore the stories you hold about yourself and the world around you to find meaning, facilitate change, and highlight your strengths and successes.

Talk therapy provides an opportunity to learn skills that will keep the emotional "trash can" empty and help develop a healthy self. Healthy emotions stimulate the human fueling system promoting positive growth, strength to create solutions and manage life challenges. Maintaining a healthy emotional/spiritual system is as important to life as sustaining a healthy heart. The emotional, physcial and spiritual persons are team players in the "game of life". Each player has a specific position in the game of life and is dependant on the other players to score health and wellness. Ignoring any one of these players for too long will affect their ability to score life goals: happiness, peace.

While I offer many coping strategies for life challenges, it is my passion to help you discover the cause of your anxiety, depression, grief, anger, conflict in relationships.

There are many things which cause us distress and prevent us from achieving our preferred quality of life. These can include a variety of feelings, thoughts, beliefs, reactions, confusion, past or present situations, etc. You can more easily think about, and choose, your preferred ways of living, by getting clear about what's going on, how you're being affected, and your usual responses. I delight to help in this kind of process: it can be a way of making things which are invisible, visible; things which are unspoken, clear; even things which were un-thought of, possible.

I primarily use Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) to support individuals, couples and families to get the supportive relationships they need to be safe, secure and grow in life. EFT is designed to provide opportunities to express vulnerable emotions to loved ones so that one can be clearly understood and valued by the most important people in your life. Even in individual therapy, there are powerful techniques used to safely access unacknowledged (often painful) emotions in connection to oneself and others. EFT is based on our knowledge of the importance of close bonds with others and has over 20 years of research that verifies its success. Call me for a confidential consult.
