Are you hurting, stressed, worried about a relationship, feeling overwhelmed?  Are the sources of your pain more than you can manage?One of the reasons that people seek psychotherapy is because they can’t find acceptable solutions on their own or with help from friends and family.  Our culture places such a high value on independence and autonomy that we are reluctant to seek help from others.

The notion that people who see therapists are crazy or “less than” is likely a by-product of fierce individualism and good old-fashioned prejudice.  Ironically, it is the people who seek help outside of themselves who show true strength through their willingness to acknowledge the need for expert help.  Shame, false pride, and ego are what keep us unhappy.

It is a privilege for me to collaborate with an individual, couple, or family to find better solutions for their challenges.
