Individual Therapy

Sometimes you wonder what you are doing with your life. Destructive emotions or behaviors, old hurts and current obstacles to your goals, and uncertainty about your direction, your purpose, hold you back from being your best. You find yourself wanting some joy in your life. Something inside is moving you to stop and reflect and then turn toward something better in life, in health, in relationships, and in work.

In individual therapy, we work toward recovery from symptoms, restoration of healthy development across the lifespan, the pursuit of purpose, and the creation of excellence in areas of your concern. We will begin by looking at your current concerns in their historical context, to gain a sense of what these issues mean to you. We will mobilize your inner wisdom and strengths to pursue recovery, development, purpose, and excellence in your life.
