Individual Therapy
I work extensively with individuals looking to improve relationships with themselves and the people closest to them.
Individual relationship counseling is perfect for those whose partner isn’t ready to come to therapy, or for those who want to work on their part of the relationship without their partner.
I am trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an innovative and creative therapeutic modality that aids us in being with painful thoughts and emotions in a new way, changing what can be changed, accepting what we can’t control, and taking committed action toward our goals.
We’ll work collaboratively to:
- Decrease stress, worry, and anxiety
- Effectively handle difficult thoughts, feelings, and situations
- Stop self-defeating patterns
- Set meaningful goals based on your values
- Increase your feelings of self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-compassion
- Take an honest look at your relationship struggles
- Learn the skills you need to improve your relationships with others
- Evaluate the stories you are believing about yourself and those closest to you that keep you stuck
- Make difficult relationship decisions such as whether to stay or go
- Handle overwhelm more effectively
And when talking is not enough, I invite you to try Brainspotting Therapy.

We will begin to establish our therapeutic relationship, determine what you would like to work on and identify your goals for being in therapy.
If you are in a relationship, there is a lot we can do to assess your relationship’s strengths and weaknesses and begin to change unproductive patterns, with just one person. I teach crucial relational and communication skills that can begin to turn around a relationship that has been stuck, even if you are the only one who is working on it right now.
Therapy can be such an important component to creating a sense of happiness and well-being, that you owe it to yourself to try again. Sometimes people just don’t click with a certain therapist. It’s important to make sure you choose someone who makes you feel safe, comfortable, understood and validated and who has the right experience to expertly guide you.
I offer a 20 minute complimentary phone call so that you can see if I can be helpful to you in whatever your are struggling with.
