When clients first come to see me, many mention previous negative experiences with psychotherapy. Complaints often are about therapists being “unresponsive,” “too clinical,” or even “silent.” People come looking for a connection—a relationship in which they can feel safe to be vulnerable, to speak difficult truth, to reveal pain, and to find possibilities. I believe that this solid connection between therapist and client is a prerequisite for significant healing and growth in any therapy process...

I believe how we think about our experiences and what we do in response matters as much as what actually happens to us. I help my clients develop awareness of their thoughts, feelings, action, and their bodies, and help them explore how those experiences might interact with one another, both in the past and present. I also believe in balancing acceptance and change, both in the work and in the therapeutic relationship itself. I strive to create a validating and nonjudgmental space for...
Do you feel like your feelings are holding you back; stopping you from being the person you were before? Have you been trying hard to stop thinking negatively about yourself but you just do it anyway?
