Heal. Restore. Thrive.
I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.
- Carl Jung
Psychotherapy can be helpful in treating most mental disorders. However, many people who benefit from psychotherapy are not diagnosed with a clinical disorder. Psychotherapy can help with a number of life's stresses and conflicts that can affect anyone. For example, it may help you:
Resolve conflicts with your partner or someone else in your life
Relieve anxiety or stress due to work or other situations
Cope with major life changes, both positive and difficult, such as divorce, the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or a move, promotion, new baby
Learn to manage unhealthy reactions, such as road rage or passive-aggressive behavior
Come to terms with an ongoing or serious physical health problem
Recover from emotional, physical or sexual trauma
Cope with sexual problems, whether they're due to a physical or psychological cause
Sleep better, if you have trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep (insomnia)
Identify and work through barriers to achieving personal, career, and/or relationship goals.
In some cases, psychotherapy can be as effective as medications, such as antidepressants. However, depending on your specific situation, psychotherapy alone may not be enough to ease the symptoms of a mental health condition. You may also need medications or other treatments.
My approach to therapy is collaborative and integrative. Your needs are unique, so my treatment will be unique to you. I utilize techniques from cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and humanistic therapy, as appropriate, to tailor my treatment to each individual.
