Welcome

"How can therapists create the kinds of conversations and relationships with their clients that allow all participants to access their creativities and develop possibilities where none seemed to exist before?"

- Harlene Anderson, Ph.D. (2007)

Change begets more change.  In other words, change can be self-sustaining.  To create change, we must above all want it.  We must be willing to consider how our lives can be different and then think, feel, and act in ways that are different.  In a nutshell, this is the process of therapy. 

As a professional therapist, I seek to partner with my clients in creating these kinds of therapeutic relationships aimed at understanding how our "living paths" are continuously shaped by change and how we can in turn influence and shift this process of change through dialogue and commitment.  Together, we learn about each other in ways that expand the possibilities for change that consequently empower us to move in new and more creative and self-determined directions that result in more productive and fulfilling outcomes.  For many of us, our problems and difficulties arise not from an inability to act or some other type of personal defficiecy; but rather, they stem from situational discords or transactional dilemmas that restain or even sometimes trap us in ways that further impede our ability to evaluate how we think we should feel, how we think we should think, and most importantly, how we think we should act.
