“I have been providing individual, couples, and group psychotherapy for over 25 years. Typically, people enter therapy because they are having problems in their relationships. Successful psychotherapy must focus on helping develop more fulfilling and substantial interpersonal connections. Facilitating a client's capacity to lead a richer and more emotionally balanced life is the objective. The therapeutic relationship is the road traveled, and enables the client to understand the choices they have made, the associated positive and negative consequences, and the freedom to make new, more effective and satisfying life decisions.
I meet with clients weekly because continuity and commitment in psychotherapy are cornerstones for success. Key ingredients of psychotherapy include: treat clients with the utmost respect, offer honest and clear feedback on how it feels to be with them, and hold the hope that a more fulfilling life is possible.
Honesty, Humor, Authenticity, Empathy, Trust, Warmth, Integrity, Commitment to the work, Response-ability, Creativity, Expansiveness, Storytelling, Safety and Security, Appreciation of Vulnerability, Affirmation, and Validation. These are the elements of good psychotherapy. Come in and check out to see if I am the right therapist for you.”
