Every relationship comes with its fair share of issues. Navigating the complexities of life together is hard enough, but when you start to feel regularly distressed or hopeless, about your relationship, it may be time to seek professional help. No matter what your issues seem to stem from (disagreements about money, sex, stress, chronic illness, mental illness, infidelity, trust, emotional distance, parenting etc.), if you and your partner are arguing more frequently and experiencing feelings of resentment or contempt, it is likely that there are some underlying problems to address. Because many problems in relationships are a result of communication issues, a qualified mental health therapist can teach you to find new ways of talking to each other to help you find your way back to common ground. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s relationship and marriage issues experts today.
Do the “shoulds” dictate your every move? Are you a “people pleaser” putting the needs and wants of others in front of yours? Do you constantly take care of others at the expense of yourself? Do you frequently second guess or doubt yourself? Doing these things means we ignore our own wants, needs and values. Living out of alignment with yourself leads to feeling lost, discontent, anxious, low self-esteem, disconnected, unfulfilled, regret, resentment, or grief.

Despite your best efforts, you realized you need someone specially trained and experienced to guide you to a better place. I help people for whom anger or anxiety has become a problem by improving behavioral and emotional self-awareness, identifying triggers and underlying causes, and developing effective coping skills that can help you manage you anger and anxiety in more constructive ways.

My clients are burnt out from seeking external validation and feel unsure of how to move through life without compartmentalizing their emotions and parts of themselves that feel unwanted. They desire relief from uncertainty, anxiety and discontent but the quick fixes they are trying haven't helped. In our work together, you will gain insight, increased self-compassion and a greater sense of authenticity as you learn to hold space for all parts of yourself with curiosity.

There are many reasons eating disorders are invited into your life. Just as there are many reasons why a person develops an eating disorder, the way you recover will be just as unique. If there was a one size fits all solution, that would perhaps be as deceptive as the problem itself. Whether it’s perfectionism, judgment, loneliness, self-improvement, health, fear, family issues… Together we will discover what invites these problems into your life, and begin to find what recovery means for you.

Our relationships with ourselves can be complicated. Together, let’s better understand how your life circumstances have gotten you to where you are today. What is working for you? What is not working for you? How is your relationship with yourself affecting your relationships with others?

Together, I can help you feel more confident, empowered and at ease in your relationships.

I am uniquely skilled in engaging the struggles related to trauma, life transitions, and the LGBTQ community. Many of the men and women who choose to work with me are in the grips of anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, or relationship challenges. Many are highly motivated professionals that are self-reliant and achievement-focused, but often struggle with self-defeating thoughts and patterns that keep them feeling stuck.

Do you feel stuck and exhausted by all the cycles of "what if" that take up space in your mind? Are you struggling with anxiety or shame related to your body? Do you feel stuck in unhealthy dating or relationship patterns? You're not alone. In our lives we all desire connection, confidence, and ease - sometimes we just need some help reaching our goals. I help individuals struggling with body image, disordered eating, relationships, and anxiety to learn skills and feel empowered in their lives.

Therapy improves relationships. The individuals I work with are often tired of repeating the same patterns again and again, whether it's dating abuse, codependency, or chronic relationship conflict, anxiety, avoidance or indecision. They're ready to get to the root causes and finally make real change. Of course, all relationships start with and reflect your relationship to yourself. If you're dealing with a harsh inner critic or low self-worth, this internal relationship needs attention first.

I seem to be an especially good fit for people who identify as sensitive/emotional, self-critical, creative, rebellious, different, or insightful. My areas of experience and focus are: depression, anxiety, relationship issues, grief/loss, non-traditional relationships, sexuality, identity and self-esteem.

You've got a lot going on, and lately it's becoming too much; your relationship is strained, or your anxiety is increasing. Maybe you and your partner are experiencing higher levels of conflict or disconnect. Maybe you've experienced a loss or trauma and feel ungrounded. Or maybe you feel unsatisfied with your life, despite having "everything" you want. Whatever brings you to therapy, you've got an engaged partner in working through it.

Sometimes we need someone trustworthy, who will listen attentively without judgement or reproach, and reflect what they hear with honestly and with care, who will stay steady when we are mired in the eddies of our emotions, and help us make sense of our histories and lives. Sometimes we need someone to bear witness to our suffering, our sorrow and our longing, to feel the nuance and mystery of who we are and have become, and to help forge the path forward.

Many of my clients are dealing with concerns such as depression or anxiety, or working to improve relationships with family, partners, or friends. I especially enjoy working with people from immigrant backgrounds who are navigating multiple intersecting identities, and their impact on their personal and professional lives.

My clients are very hard working, have a long track record of success, and care deeply about their work, friends, and family. Even so, life can be challenging. Many of my clients had a bad day and are still emotionally beating themselves up for minor mistakes. They constantly replay what they should have done differently sometimes for days and weeks at a time. They become frustrated they cannot let go of this self-criticalness and even have thoughts they are not good enough or are a fraud.

You're "fine..." you just need a sounding board and place to vent. It's hard to say what feels off, but you're curious about therapy and think it could help. Worth a try! There's pressure on you at work, and not much gained beyond the paycheck. You're even ambivalent about a possible promotion. Overworked and under-acknowledged, you don't feel great, yet know it could be so. much. worse. Still you can't help but wish you could have more time, energy, peace of mind. Dear client, YOU CAN.
