About Therapy

Think you know what therapy’s like?

You’re sitting on your couch, watching a TV show when a therapy scene pops up on the screen…

We see that the client looks nervous and uncomfortable. The therapist sits… idly nodding, occasionally asking, “How does that make you feel?”

Do you have the creeps yet? I certainly do.

Real, skilled therapy…

… looks nothing like this TV scene. It’s an active process where we work together to figure out why you’ve hit a wall within yourself or your relationship and how to smash through it.

I work with smart, motivated individuals and couples that are tired of their “life issues” being the entire focus of their lives. They want great love, great accomplishments and are done letting mistakes, old hurt and low self-esteem stop them from getting it.

What it looks like…

Sitting on that couch, you’ll be looking at the face of someone (that’s me!) that has no judgment about who you are, what you want and what’s making it so difficult to get there.

I’ll listen. I’ll ask challenging questions; these questions and the techniques I use are designed to help evaluate your true beliefs and desires… and permanently banish the ones you thought you ‘should’ have.

“I’m not sure what I SHOULD do. But everybody says I SHOULD…”

“I’m afraid that people will judge me, so it’s just easier to do what they think I SHOULD do.”

“I probably SHOULDN’T break up with him. My friends say the relationship seems pretty good.”

Sound familiar? Clients find me only after this self-defeating track plays on repeat in their minds. That track always leads to the same tune… anxiety, depression and that same fateful thought – “Is this as good as it gets?”

You’ll get clear on what YOU believe and what YOU want. I’ll give you a detailed plan of action at the end of every session to make it happen.

There will be no idle nodding, here!

This means that I will offer suggestions to try during the week, so we can see what does and doesn’t work for you.

This homework (yep, there will be homework if you want results!) builds to achieving your ultimate goal – creating and living in your ‘happy place.’

You’ve come to the right place…

If it feels uncomfortable, that just means you’re in good company… and in the right place! That’s because there’s no real growth without a little discomfort.

But we’ll go at your pace, and we’ll celebrate every brave step you take.

Life is meant to be enjoyed! Let me help bring you closer to the fulfillment you want. Call me today: (818) 971-7155
