Individual Psychotherapy for Adults
Are you at a point in life where you are beginning to question whether you are on the right path? Perhaps you are experiencing increasing irritability, anxiety, depression, insomnia, or substance use. Maybe you are longing to be more creative. Or you are lost when it comes to a sense of purpose. You may feel limited by the life you’ve created and can’t imagine anything different. Or fear what changing would mean to those you love.
Therapy with me gives you access to hidden parts of yourself longing to come out and the courage to build the road you wish to travel.
Some of the areas I work with include:
aging
anxiety
addictions and problematic behaviors
career misfit/underutilized talent
creativity
depression
ethical or moral crises
gender and identity
guilt
lost hope
low self esteem
maladaptive coping styles
relationships and intimacy
sexuality
spirituality and spiritual emergencies
stress, and transitions.
Some examples of how therapy looks with me:
In weekly sessions: we might discuss what is confusing to you about yourself and where you may feel blocked. To focus our work we may discuss art, literature or other symbols that relate to your experiences. You could bring in a dream that we work to understand together.
As called for: I might suggest a role play to help us get deeper into an issue you are working on. The goal being to give you more flexibility in relation to your problem. I guide you through this and no previous experience is required.
Sometimes: I might ask you to explore what kinds of sensations you notice in different parts of your body as we explore things that are challenging for you. This is in an attempt to release blocked energy in a way that that is healing.
