What I Do
Individual Psychotherapy
Individual psychotherapy is an ongoing, deep inquiry into thoughts, emotions, attitudes, and ways of being that may serve you as well as hold you back in your relationships and from living as fulfilling a life as possible. Individual therapy with me, will begin right where you are and gently, yet directly, look at how you came to be and what you do now that helps or hinders, in contact, in relationship. In Therapy, you may also hear me speak about the challenges presented in the dominant culture that lead to greater and greater alienation which contribute to our suffering and discuss ways in which to shift and move to find your way in your particular corner of the world and with whom you hold dear.
Group Therapy
Join a group to explore and process your personal experiences, dramatically enhance your emotional awareness and emotional intelligence, cultivate emotional resilience, form dynamic awareness of yourself in relationship and work through self-limiting behaviors through group process and witnessing.
Increase your productivity and focus, set goals, gain accountability, become part of something and break cycles and patterns of isolation.
Group therapy is an time-honored and rarely practiced form of dynamic psychotherapy and inter-personal awareness. If you have difficulty in relationships, challenges understanding why they are difficult for you, or love the group experience, please contact me to find out more about available groups.
Men's Work
In the dominant culture of North America, the overt and covert conditioning of boys and men banishes them from the the emotional and relational realms while forcing them into high performing, assertive, and competitive go-getters. Come and explore with me the value and the deep harm of such conditioning and redefine the masculine paradigm for yourself. Learn to balance strength and softness as you carry it forward into your lives, relationships, and work as husbands, fathers, and leaders. Gain support navigating the terrain of being a husband, father, and man in today's dynamic and complex world.
Couples Therapy
Underneath most challenges in relationship including difficulties in communication, patterns of conflict, frustrations and even infidelity or problematic and/or addictive behaviors lies some level of emotional disconnection and at times lack of emotional safety.
In couples therapy with me you will come to understand your relational patterns of conflict, the emotional disconnection underneath as well as the emotional wounds and needs that drive the patterns. Learn how to care for and nurture one another's wounded parts, cultivate effective communication, break patterns, and create and enhance emotional connection and safety with Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and me.
