If you are struggling with sadness or worry, failure to achieve goals, or problems with relationships, we can work together to make changes. From brief problem solving methods to more in-depth analytical concepts, we will tailor a method of working together to uniquely suit your life, situation, and personality.
I enjoy working with challenging and difficult to solve problems as well as crisis situations and health or end of life concerns.
I utilize a mix of education - teaching about concepts, offering avenues for additional research; mindfulness - keeping the mind of others in mind, monitoring the self within interactions; analytic techniques - why do we do what we do, think what we think? I often seek resources for further study or analysis, ways to learn more about the subject at hand. I love teaching others to do this work for themselves.
In a first meeting, I will gather information from you about your current circumstances and what is driving you to seek consultation. I will ask questions and gather details, and I will start to develop an understanding of what is causing your distress. We will discuss my impressions and determine together a plan of action to bring relief and restore optimal functioning to your life and situation.
