Albert Einstein once said, “If I had an hour to solve a problem, I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.” I believe this truth also is very much applicable in the realm of human psychology.

Professionally I tend to gravitate towards clients that possesses many of the outward facing characteristics of success, only to somehow feel as though something is off or missing – like they are possessing a problem that increasingly feels unsolvable.

In clinical speak, the above often translates into some form of Life Transition Issue, Career Change/Dissatisfaction, Anxiety Disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Relationship Struggles, Problems with intimacy or “opening up” to others, Struggles with Shame or Self Esteem, and/or a tendency to “stuff” uncomfortable emotions, although the above symptoms can translate in other clinical diagnoses as well.

I’ve grown enough in my own awareness to know that I really enjoy working with clients that feel stuck, burnt out, confused, and looking for solutions to a problem that doesn’t yet make total sense.

Through emphasis on creating an environment in which one can “exhale” - rooted in dialogue, occasional humor, collaboration, reflection, and education – I hope to communicate in a way that helps my clients know that their struggle is comprehensible, understandable, reasonable, and solvable.
