Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Ken

Practicing since 1988, I utilize DBT, CBT, IFS and Psyschodrama.

Life is a constant state of transition. By using evidence based Cognitive Behavioral Therapies, I help clients gain understanding and insight into present life struggles, past influences, and future direction. It all starts with a simple diagram, the Intimacy Gram.

My approach to therapy

I focus on inner child work; revealing past trauma and the resulting belief system. I draw from my background in Theater Arts to add Experiential Therapy to my Cognitive Behavioral Approaches. I integrate 12 Step/Community Support with therapy, excellerating the healing process.

My goal is for you to attain a level of emotional sobriety. Build confidence, and self acceptance; serenity within your life realms and relationships.

What you can expect from me

Hope. Compassion. Insight. Coping tools. Community resources.
