Psychotherapy is not easily described in general statements…

The process and experience of psychotherapy varies depending on the interaction of the personalities of the therapist and the client, and especially on the particular problems you bring forward. Effective psychotherapy calls for an active involvement on the part of the therapist and the client alike and, in this collaboration, positive changes can be expected to occur. Psychotherapy often leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, and to significant reductions in feelings of distress.

I sincerely hope that our alliance, and the work we do together, can lead to positive changes in your perception of yourself and of others and to the reduction or elimination of persistent, and sometimes debilitating, psychological symptoms.

The exploration and analysis of dreams, active imaginations, and fantasy is essential to insight-oriented psychotherapy. Dream and fantasy material can provide the conscious access to vital unconscious processes that shape behaviors and experiences and can greatly enhance psychological development in general. I regard dream analysis as a vital component of psychotherapy and I encourage the inclusion and exploration of dream and creative material in our work.
