Approach
Through my Gestalt training, I’ve gained awareness into how to approach life with more creativity and spontaneity and connect more deeply with others. I bring these qualities into my practice. I help people sift through their unfinished business, the places they may be stuck or hurting, their anxieties and fears, so that they can feel more connected to themselves and others, and are ready to engage fully in their lives.
Finding Your Way
We often follow the usual path of education, career and perhaps starting a family. It is easy to get caught up in the grinding monotony of a daily life, feeling stuck or trapped. There comes time in everyone’s life when we struggle: depression, grief, a challenging relationship. People often get caught up thinking how their life “should” be going, what they “should” be doing. It may look like everyone else is getting ahead except them.
Therapy can be a wonderful journey of self discovery and growth that can help you reclaim what it is to be human, how to actually cope with life, live creatively and have satisfying relationships.
Creating Together
While therapy is serious work, I believe it works best when we allow for creativity and spontaneity. Experiments may arise from what happens in the moment. I allow for the possibility of using forms of art and dramatization in our work together. Your therapy will be a process that arises from your specific situation and needs. The therapeutic relationship is important to me. I take you seriously in your struggle. I work with directness, empathy and compassion, with a trauma informed perspective.
