Attachment Theory

Attachment theory relates to the long-term interpersonal relationship style we have and how it affects our present day relationships with others. It's based on the general premise that attachment styles we developed in our early years influence our patterns of interacting in close relationships in later years.

Humanistic 

Humanistic theory is a holistic approach that pays special attention to positive human potential. It encourages self exploration and viewing ourselves as a 'whole person' greater than the sum of our parts. It incorporates self-awareness that helps the client change their state of mind and behavior from one of reactions to a healthier one with more productive self-awareness and thoughtful actions.

Gestalt

Gestalt therapy helps people get in touch with and talk honestly about their unfulfilled needs. It raises awareness of the patterns people have established in their lives that can be problematic and lead to being stuck. Gestalt is a strengths-based perspective that does not reduce people only to a diagnosis or set of issues.It’s an approach that helps us expand ourselves and increases confidence

Relationship / Marriage Issues

I help individuals who struggle in relationships with their romantic partners, friends, family, co-workers and anyone else that is relevant in their life.

Loss or Grief

I work with people who have lost loved ones to suicide, accidents and age related medical illness and premature death to cancer and other sicknesses. In addition, I've helped people who have lost jobs, marriages, connections with family and friends and more.

Eating Disorder

My practice includes working with the full spectrum of eating issues including body image concerns, weight management, binge eating, anorexia, bulimia, and obesity.

Anxiety

Anxiety issues are very common and can include panic attacks, obsessive thinking, compulsive behaviors, constant worrying, and irrational fears. Anxiety often goes hand in hand with depression. I work with people with all of these struggles and any other anxiety issues.
