Introduction: I offer psychotherapy services for adults and teens. If you would like to change your life, therapy is a good way to do it. People pursue therapy for a variety of reasons but typically for the common everyday issues of living that are causing distress -- things they haven't found answers for through other means. Psychotherapy may come in the form of support, information, guidance, self-understanding, or a safe place to learn and practice new skills, which include the following: * Self-Exploration Some people come to therapy to gain a deeper understanding of self. They want to know why they do what they do, why they feel what they feel, and determine how much control they have over those areas. * Support in Coping Loss is a common reason for people to seek therapy. Therapy can provide a safe, supportive place for people to talk about grief, the end of a relationship or job, abuse issues, or any change in life circumstances that cause distress. It helps alleviate anxiety, depression, anger, and confusion. You will be learning new coping skills like better communication for dealing with conflict and frustration, managing emotions, or mindfulness. You will be learning a process for overcoming pain, working through loss, and adding meaning to your life.
