The way for us to experience change in our lives is to become curious about our own stories.
​
Each of us has a story filled with struggles, difficulties, setbacks, victories, celebrations, passion, and love. When we find the courage to explore these stories, something incredible happens: we can be free to write our future stories together in new and meaningful ways.
COUNSELING SERVICES
INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING
Counseling has been shown to be most effective when the therapist can offer a range of tailor-made therapeutic strategies to the client's specific situation. Traditionally, regular 60-minute sessions (up to 90-minute sessions) offer the client new awarenesses to develop a clear sense of his or her situation. This awareness aids the client towards better functioning and lessening levels of experienced distress. Individual counseling feels like a regular conversation about how best to thrive in this situation. I tend to utilize client-centered, narrative, internal family systems, and CBT modalities.

cOUPLEs counseling
Couple's Counseling traditionally flows out of an Emotionally Focus Therapy (EFT) format. In this model, the goal is to help couples find new strategies to communicate about what is most troubling. It is also understood that most arguments between partners originate much earlier in life than this conversation. The goal of therapy is to learn how best to discover this together and support one another through these conversations going forward. The goal is to learn how to process these conversations less and less with the therapist over time.

EYE-MOVEMENT DESENSITIZATION & REPROCESSING (EMDR)
This form of individual counseling uses the body's own healing systems to process symptoms. Research has shown EMDR to be effective in processing a number of different forms of trauma. Built upon the work of Francine Shapiro, EMDR asks the client to focus on right and left stimuli while focusing upon distressing thoughts, feelings, and/or bodily sensations. These painful memories are "moved" to working memory, lessening the effect of these "triggers" and improving the client's life. The result is less anxiety and increased emotional regulation.

EXECUTIVE COACHING
Executive Coaching is a set of psychological topics aimed to help professionals work through leadership and management ceilings that may be preventing success in professional environments. Executives often find certain tasks difficult or remark that they are struggling to move forward in their careers. These conversations will illuminate what may be holding these executives back. This awareness carries the potential to free the executive to try something new professionally. There is a starting and ending date to these sessions, typically a 5-week or 10-week program. Programs will include a number of psychological assessments.

In-person or virtual sessions
5-week Program - $1,200
10-week program - $2,000

PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENTS
A number of assessments are available to help clients gain awareness into what may be going on psychologically. These assessments, which can determine issues like trauma, attachment styles, personality disorders, depression, anxiety disorders, eating disorder, body dysmorphia, and career fits have high validity and reliability scores. This information can be vital throughout therapy. This can be especially helpful in seeing progress throughout treatment by initially testing and then retesting later in treatment. Many of these psychological tests can be taken over the computer at home.
​
Pricing for Assessment is based upon the cost of each assessment.

APPROACH
We can become honest about who we are, what we have experienced, and how these experiences have influenced us.
There are reasons our relationships are difficult, professions are a struggle, and life seems just out of reach. We have adopted strategies that help us survive, locking us into our choices. Many of these lessons were learned very early in life. Walking back through our stories helps us become aware of how life has shaped us, how our brains have interpreted past circumstances, and the strategies we have adopted in order to make sense of it all.
In this way, counseling is less about fixing something and more about finding something together.
