Therapy can help you find relief from distress and free up the “stuck” places in your life, the ways of relating to yourself and others that can feel self-defeating, limiting or out of your control.

Yet these experiences are not only a source of suffering, they are also a message that speaks to desires, conflicts, and pain. Together, we work to understand all this and place it in the context of wher...

There are many ways to cope with distress and manage emotional and relational challenges, but to truly heal and grow from experiences that once evoked shame, guilt, anger, fear, a deep sense of alonen...
