We all face difficulties in life, and we all need to make sense of these, so we come up with stories to help us do so. 

Perhaps you are experiencing the same recurring adverse life events or relationship issues or are caught up in negative and self-defeating patterns, maybe there is something that needs to shift. 

Together we will work toward symptom relief or crisis resolution, while looking honestly at what is happening and identifying the issues that need to be managed or resolved to improve the quality of your life. We can also engage in the deeper discovery of your authentic self and your creative potential.

As I listen to you tell me about yourself and your life, I will begin to get to know you and the stories that you tell yourself about things that are happening in your life. Since you are the best authority on your own life, I will always trust your narrative. But I may also see things slightly differently than you do, sensing new possibilities in the situation that you haven’t seen. Helping you find a slightly new story can often dramatically shift situations that seemed difficult to resolve, and lead to remarkable and positive transformations and growth.

I believe that exploring our inner world and gaining more understanding can enhance our wellbeing. This process involves not only the healing of psychic wounds, but uncovering unconscious blocks that prevent emotional growth and the realization of creative potential. 

Overall, my intention is to help you feel more enlivened, gain self-confidence, have more satisfying relationships and become more successful in your career. The cornerstones of my practice are support, collaboration, compassion, and imagination.

This can be a difficult task and for this to be possible we will be meeting in a calm, respectful, accepting environment in which we can find a way forward together. 

It is critical to understand that you will get better results from therapy if you actively participate in it. The point of therapy is to help you use what you learn in sessions in your everyday life.

As a result, in addition to the work you do in therapy, I may recommend some things you can do outside of therapy to support your process, such as reading a relevant book, journaling on specific topics, noting specific behaviours, or taking action on your goals.
