Counseling is an excellent opportunity to learn about your strengths and to explore what you really want out of life and relationships. As an interactive, cognitive behavioral therapist, my treatment approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients find solutions to address current life challenges as well as long standing issues. Using a variety of techniques in a comfortable atmosphere, I offer highly a personalized approach tailored to each of my client's individual needs. We will work together to attain the personal growth you are committed to accomplishing. Together, we will work to increase awareness of your strengths, identify purpose and achieve identified goals.

There is a great value to having someone who hears you. Your story. Psychotherapy provides an ally. Someone who isn't there to judge, but there to listen and hear Your voice. Your therapist can provide an outside interpretation that is informed by their education, training and experience. Maybe you aren't alone. Maybe you don't have to do it on your own.

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.

My emphasis is on helping clients deal with whatever problems are foremost in their daily lives, right now. While I can, and will, deal with issues related to the past, I believe most people are looking to solve current problems and move on. In taking that focus, I sometimes investigate the dreams people are having, because current dreams are always attempts to solve current problems. I always look for a client's strengths, and try to use them to help the client figure out what he or she needs to do now.

With a holistic blend of therapies, including a focus on Somatic Experiencing, my practice offers transformative support for those navigating persistent mental health challenges. My approach is deeply rooted in understanding attachment dynamics and the unconscious processes shaping our lives, thanks to extensive training at The Menninger Clinic and practical experience in diverse therapeutic modalities like CBT and DBT. I am committed to creating a therapeutic space that fosters self-awareness, resilience, and growth, empowering clients to untangle complex emotional patterns and embark on a path to recovery.

Even if you've tried therapy before, I encourage you to try again. Your problems are important and significant. If they weren't, you wouldn't be researching therapists on the internet! If I didn't believe people could change, I wouldn't be in this business. You receive a free initial phone consultation with me, so you can interview me and see if I would be helpful in your situation. I would be thrilled to be given the opportunity to work with you.

My approach to psychotherapy is rooted in fostering a therapeutic alliance built on trust, empathy, and active listening. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in depth. Through a client-centered and integrative approach, clients will benefit from tailored interventions and techniques that address their unique needs and goals. I strive to empower clients to gain self-awareness, develop coping strategies, and facilitate personal growth.

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.

Using psychotherapy, or talk therapy, we will work together to tackle a broad variety of mental and emotional difficulties. Psychotherapy can help reduce your mental health symptoms such as depression and anxiety. I will deploy psychotherapeutic skills to help clients function better, regain a sense of control, and improve their mental wellbeing.

Sometimes life is painful, and sometimes you get stuck in the pain. Getting help from a psychotherapist can help you resolve the issues that are keeping you stuck so you can feel like the "self" you want to be. I help you change your patterns of thinking, behaving, and feeling so you can live a life of peace, pleasure, and joy. Your Tomorrow Can Feel Better Than Today
