About My Practice
People and their behavior exist within a larger context and it's important we work within that context. Together, we will build healthy change and work to understand the larger system of your life. We will find a way to both create positive change for you while still considering the health and well being of those outside the therapy room.
My purpose as a therapist is to help you create positive change in your life; to make things better. What that is, we will explore as we both bring knowledge and experience into the room. Finding that unique path to a positive outcome is what therapy is about.
Ideas you will encounter when you work with me:
Identity can't be dictated. - It must be experienced and determined by each person for themselves.
People are vast and fascinating. - Every person has their own background, history, and story which has led them to this place in time. All of those pieces come together to create you, a complex and interesting individual worthy of being understood.
Problems are complex. - They are created over time by many intersecting factors. It is through the process of understanding and working with a given issue that change can occur.
There are multiple truths and multiple realities. - Everyone’s perspective, on any given event or belief, is unique. Accepting this can be difficult for some people.
Power is a motivating force, used to create change. - Its uses and abuses are all around us. It must be explored and deconstructed to create positive change.
Every instance of connection has influence. - Every discussion, touch, significant look, or interaction with another person has the potential to move us. We use these moments to create change.
In every relationship there are both known and hidden truths. - Working to change the hidden to open and negotiated truths, is part of creating positive change.
Sexuality (and sexual identity) is an important and vital part of a person's life. - And it is not the source of every problem or issue. Exploring and talking about it is both normal and important.
