Crisis, such as conflict with an important person in your life is often the reason why someone calls for therapy.
Therapy is a way to talk through these problems with a trained listener who can assist you in coming to your best solutions.
Talking out your problems helps you work through and understand patterns that keep you repeating the same hurtful behaviors.
When your ability to cope is overpowered by anger, anxiety, depression, guilt or sorrow, we offer compassionate support, insights and problem-solving skills to help you develop a fresh perspective.

How does this happen?
Like most therapists, we believe that our current behavior is heavily influenced by our experiences growing up.
Your family of origin's approach to handling conflict, communication, power and closeness strongly affects how you react today when you are under stress.
These early experiences along with temperament determine the patterning that gets established and reused over and over in our brain.
How we respond in a crisis or when we feel threatened with our partner results from this patterning.

Our experienced staff is certified to provide supervision for other therapists and new graduates seeking licensure.
The quality of service a therapist can provide is related to the quality of supervision they receive over their career.
Effective supervision means being willing bring in cases where you made mistakes or felt ineffective.
We work hard to provide a safe environment to learn from mistakes and develop greater compassion and skill.
