Areas of Expertise
Individuals
-
Are you wanting change in your life?
-
Are you desiring growth, clarity, and ease?
-
Are you wanting more enjoyment, meaning, and vitality?
Individual interpersonal psychotherapy offers a safe place to explore our inner world. Goals of this shared exploration include increasing awareness, insight, understanding, and self-acceptance.
Teens and Young Adults
-
Is your teen facing new challenges?
-
Are you wanting your adolescent to have greater self-confidence and to be more self-assured?
-
Do you want your teen to make more healthy and responsible decisions?
As teens navigate their home, peer, and broader communities, they need to be heard, acknowledged, and to have their feelings valued.
I also offer therapy groups for teens and adults.
Couples
-
In your relationship, are you wanting to communicate with less conflict, greater clarity, and greater ease?
-
Are you wanting greater trust, safety, caring, and intimacy?
-
Are you wanting to parent more together, as a unified team?
For many couples, difficulty in communication regarding current emotional needs, wants, and desires reflects both present and historical wounds and sensitivities. Couples benefit from support in expressing their experiences, emotions, and vulnerabilities.

-
Are you wanting to promote problem solving in your family?
-

-
Are you wanting greater ease in social dynamics?
