Most people who seek out therapy with me struggle with a narcissistic relationship that is no longer manageable. At first, many of us find narcissists to be charming or misunderstood, but over time these relationships make us feel isolated, hopeless, and resentful. Once we learn how to identify narcissistic behavior, we realize something has to change. If you have difficulty creating distance from the narcissist, you are not alone. Therapy can help. During your sessions, we will work together to...

In my 40 plus years as a psychotherapist, I've heard many times: "I want to be happy, to feel peaceful inside myself, but I can't seem to get there" or "I feel badly telling my friends and family. I worry they get tired of listening to me." There are many reasons people feel stuck in their anxiety, depression, or relationship problems, and feel immobilized by them. Understanding what is causing problems can help you feel less stuck and immobilized, more at peace, and more self-confident. Psycho...

Whether its adjustment to school and making career decisions, t...
