We are on the forefront of new approach to the treatment of addiction and mental health, moving away from the "identified patient" model and into a more holistic approach that addresses the whole family system. My speciality is recognizing roles, patterns and entrenched behaviors in families and couples while holding everyone accountable for their own work and contributions to a malfunctioning unit. It is only through individual responsibility that the system at large may change.

Individual work is soul work. It is in the intimate one-on-one setting of traditional psychotherapy where we set aside ample time to go deep within ourselves and explore the blockages, symptoms and unanswered questions preventing us from living out our dream. This is the opportunity to name the forces we struggle most to understand while slowly working towards an awareness of our own contributions to remaining stuck in repetitive patterns.

In an ideal world all therapeutic work would be group work as humans only occupy identities in relation to others. The same applies to the natural world, which is why group work in the outdoors, previously known as "ceremony" for thousands of years, is so utterly transformative. Upcoming groups include focus on men, motherhood and general rites of passage. Please check back in or request notifications via e-mail to be kept up to date on various groups ongoing throughout the year.

Though not an official diagnosis in the DSM-5, the term "Disconnection Syndrome," coined by Dr. David Perlmutter, could very well be the most prominent and debilitating condition in our culture today with symptoms such as loneliness, unsatisfying relationships, chronic stress, impulsivity and perpetual self-centered thinking. Nature-based sessions reconnect us to where we came from and where we belong so that we can get out of our heads and back into our bodies.

While the depth work of therapy can be useful in helping us locate our inner compass, sometimes that process can be more intensive and time consuming than is necessary to simply get to the next step in life. For those looking to improve their sense of direction and learn how to cultivate sustainable habits and self-supportive structure in life, coaching may be the right fit. My style is built around concrete goals and homework to help you grow and escape the confines of your comfort zone.
