Types of Counseling


For individuals

Whether you struggle with depression or anxiety, wish to overcome the consequences of traumatic experiences, or feel stuck in any area of your life, I will meet you wherever you are and together we can move into a fuller and satisfying expression of your own unique life.


For relationships

Our intimate relationships can be a source of great comfort and connection, and they can also be a confounding struggle when we feel missed or when there is emotional pain. By focusing on being heard and listening, to ourselves and our partner(s), I will support your relationship as it grows through both the painful challenges and joyous transformation that are innately part of the relationship journey.


For groups

I currently run a weekly men’s process group for male-identified individuals wishing for emotionally intimate connections with other men.


 

“We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.”
