Are you experiencing issues related to:
Personality Disorders
Depression and/or Anxiety
Personality Disorders
Personality disorders such as borderline, narcissistic, and schizoid may be present if the person has a rigid and unhealthy thinking pattern, functioning, or behavior. They may have trouble perceiving and relating to situations and people. These difficulties can cause significant problems and limitations in relationships, social activities, work, and school. Gestalt psychotherapy works well with these disorders.
Addictions
Depression and/or Anxiety
Personality Disorders
Addiction or addictive behavior is a frightening and distressful problem for the client and their families. I believe that addictive behavior is a SYMPTOM of some other underlying issue. Traditional counseling often ignores the underlying issue. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger with addictions. I will guide you in understanding what is in your life that is preventing you from using it.
Depression and/or Anxiety
Depression and/or Anxiety
Depression and/or Anxiety
Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. I can help you recover the motivation, perspective, and joy you once had.
Achieve Mental Wellness with a Gestalt Therapy approach.
As a therapist, I believe in the power of collaboration. Together, we can work towards transforming your life and reaching your full potential. The Gestalt approach is integrative, holistic, and evidence-based, incorporating mindfulness and positive psychology. I specialize in working with adults and couples, addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and life transitions. A collaborative and compassionate approach ensures that you are active in your journey, feeling heard, understood, and supported every step of the way.
I do my thing. You do your thing. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations. You are not in this world to live up to mine. You are You. I am I. If by chance we find each other, it’s beautiful. If not, it can’t be helped.

But the question's still what are we doin' here? I don't think the answer's close at hand.
