About

Are you looking for a way out or a way in? While I fully endorse a symptom management approach (reducing stress, decreasing problem behaviors, renewing a sense of purpose), the real struggle comes in determining the root cause of dis-ease. In unique ways better and worse parents, siblings, spouses, partners, children, friends and coworkers are all impactful in the unfolding of personality. Giving attention to these delicate relationships is essential to understanding how patterns of emotional reactivity and retreat can emerge. Effective talk therapy provides space for attunement with needs met and unmet, for safety, for recognition.
