Therapy for Personal Growth

I focus on clients' long-term flourishing and growth rather than short-term behavioral change. Our work together in therapy is collaborative, relational, and designed to be both a corrective healing experience and a training ground for new skills you can apply in your real life. Sessions are usually scheduled on a weekly basis, with a recurring time set aside for you each week. We will either meet in person, or via secure video session, using a HIPAA-compliant online platform that you can access from your desktop, laptop, or mobile device.

What kind of therapy is best for me?

For therapy to be its most effective, you want someone whose style feels comfortable to you, and whose approach is targeted to the types of concerns you want to address.

I use a couple of tried-and-true therapy methods to help clients grow and gain greater insight into their lives, using elements of attachment research, Contemporary Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, and Restoration Therapy, with an occasional sprinkling of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) thrown in. Together we work through a wide range of issues including trauma, anxiety, and stress, as well as personal growth and well-being.  My clients tend to be verbal processors who are in touch with their emotions and who want to understand themselves better and find healthier ways of approaching life’s challenges.

I am happy to include elements of Christian counseling when clients desire it, but I also work very comfortably with clients of other faiths or no faith background. I’d be happy to answer your questions about my style and approach to help you determine a sense of good fit.
