The search for a therapist can be overwhelming. Seeking support takes courage, flexibility, and a willingness to change long standing habits and patterns.

I believe in maintaining a safe supportive environment where mutuality and respect are key. I work collaboratively with clients on finding creative solutions to problems and see each client through an individualized, person centered lens.

There are times in our lives when responsibility and the stress of life seem to weigh us down. Who understands better than you? Fear and worry, sadness, life transitions and loss rob us of our joy and drain our energy. Although for some it may be somewhat intimidating, the decision to seek counseling is an important step in gaining insight and finding options. Having a trained professional listen without judgement can be a liberating experience. Finding practical ways of dealing with your concerns together with someone who understands provides a level of hope and some initial confidence.

For me, being a therapist is a privilege. I like to work with anyone eager to understand what is happening to them in their life. Together, we'll try to understand the factors that are creating the trouble - including some of the unconscious ones - and then we'll put them in perspective, cut them down to size, and talk about what can be done. I create a safe, intelligent, and empathic environment for counseling where we can talk about anything without judgment. My office is a safe place to be yourself. So many of our problems have their root in isolation and anxiety, and that is something we can address together.

When seeking help, we first need the safety and security of warmth and acceptance. In our vulnerability, we need our integrity and our pain validated and respected. We need an integration of healing that includes mind. body, and soul. Together, we set clear and achievable goals. In an atmosphere of mutual trust, there is the challenge and support, the laughter and the tears involved in struggling to reach the self-direction, independence, and the peace we seek. The skills developed to survive are the foundation on which healing is built. Individuals and families are meant to move beyond survival and claim their right to thrive.

Interpersonal Therapists

Is interpersonal therapy evidence-based?

Studies have found interpersonal therapy to be effective for life transitions including retirement, divorce, and job loss. Also, some studies have found it to be just as useful as medication and other therapy approaches. The benefits of interpersonal therapy can last long after treatment has been completed; the individual can use the tenets of this therapy throughout their life.

How long does interpersonal therapy take?

Interpersonal psychotherapy is normally time-limited and focuses on specific problems in the client’s everyday relationships. Treatment can be either one-on-one or take place in a group setting; it tends to last 12 to 16 weeks, depending on the individual client’s needs. If a new interpersonal problem arises in the future, the client may require additional therapy to address it specifically. The timeline and session schedule may vary depending on the client’s challenges as well as their progress. Treatment may conclude with wrap-up sessions to review the client’s accomplishments.

Is interpersonal therapy effective?

Research shows that interpersonal therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of conditions such as depression or anxiety. The approach may also offer a range of benefits that are hard to measure but valuable—including healthier relationships and improved feelings of self-worth. The therapist will give the client practical solutions that can be put into practice. The brief duration of this therapy also means that clients can see changes in their relationships fairly quickly.

What are the limitations of interpersonal therapy?

Interpersonal therapy may not effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as psychosis, chronic illness, or alcohol relapse. Because it is short-term in nature, it may not be the best approach for conditions that need to be tracked, though maintenance sessions are a viable approach under these circumstances.

Can interpersonal psychotherapy be done online?

Yes, interpersonal psychotherapy can be conducted effectively either in-person or online. A therapist with expertise in IPT will be able to adjust their techniques, such as role-playing, to better suit the online environment. Offering online IPT can make it more accessible for clients who have transportation difficulties; it also provides the ideal opportunity to explore challenges unique to digital relationships.
