Can I benefit from therapy?

Whether you have been formally diagnosed with a clinical disorder, are grieving a lost loved one, or just wonder if you might get more satisfaction in your life, talk therapy, art therapy, or the unique combination of both can greatly improve your quality of life.

Perspectives on Mental Health

I am frequently asked if particular behaviors, thoughts or relationship dynamics are 'healthy' or 'unhealthy.' My response usually is, 'How is it working?' I assist my clients in examining what thoughts and behaviors are helpful.

Habits develop initially to help us. Problems only occur when our circumstances change and old habits no longer serve their original helpful purpose.

Our ideas and patterns need updating, which is where therapy is extremely helpful. You can try out new ways of being in the world and get instant feedback in a safe, supportive environment.
