"Our suffering is not remembering who we are."
As a practicing psychotherapist, I am committed to helping individuals, couples and groups who seek to live a happier and more productive life. I work towards helping them to understand and know the unknown parts of themselves that are causing them difficulty. They come from a wide variety of backgrounds - different religions, ethnicity and sexual preferences.
The patients with whom I work are dealing with issues such as:
Depression
Anxiety
Panic Attacks
Life Transitions/Mid-Life Issues, Menopause
ADHD
Gay/Lesbian Issues
PTSD (Post- Traumatic-Stress-Disorder)
Pre-Marriage Counseling
Marriage Counseling
Self Esteem/Personal Growth
Stress
Women's Issue
Career Confusion
Creative Blocks
WOMEN'S SMALL GROUP PSYCHOTHERAPY
MY SMALL GROUPS HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN HELPING WOMEN WHO ARE FEELING ISOLATED IN DEALING WITH THEIR LIFE TRANSITIONS. GROUP IS A SAFE AND CONFIDENTIAL PLACE TO WORK THROUGH FEELINGS OF ISOLATION AND PAINFUL RELATIONAL SITUATIONS WHILE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN EXPERIENCED GROUP THERAPIST. IT PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR PERSONAL GROWTH AND A SAFE ENVIRONMENT TO UNDERSTAND HOW AND WHY ONE IS EXPERIENCING UNHAPPINESS IN THEIR LIFE. GROUP MEMBERS ARE ABLE TO EXPERIMENT WITH NEW WAYS OF INTERACTING AND RECIEVE SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGEMENT ALONG THE WAY.
