Psychotherapy is a general term that describes what therapists do. But when do well it focuses on the process of therapy and not just a quick fix or answer to your problems. Most people that come into my office know what they need to do but can't seem to do it. Psychotherapy involves both of us looking into what is getting in the way of you making these changes. I always tell my clients that I trust their instincts and if they do not or cannot do what is needed there is a reason why. Uncovering that reason and learning to listen to your instincts is what I believe psychotherapy is at its core.

As licensed psychotherapists, we provide a safe and supportive therapeutic environment for helping our clients to process emotions, traumas, and explore their personal experiences to gain insight and make progress toward their goals. Processing your experiences in psychotherapy has many benefits, including lessening undesirable symptoms, increasing positive emotions, improving outlook on life and helping you to understand yourself and your life better. We will utilize psychotherapy techniques tailored to your specific needs to assist you in getting closer to where you would like to be.

When clients graduate from treatment, they take with them a box full of "tools", such as effective anger management techniques, avoiding confrontations that lead to negative expressions of anger, resolving conflict peacefully and quietly, making the right decisions in every aspect of life, and perseverance to always build skills against life's problems and apply them consistently.

My approach to counseling revolves around the idea that our dissatisfaction with life is rooted in the reality that the world we exist in is greatly removed from the world we want to live in. In therapy we will learn to adjust our expectations of our ideal world, but more importantly we will discover our ability to change the world we live in. Through this journey we will become better acquainted with your resilience and potential!

My approach to therapy is not a quick fix or a band-aid approach. It is not self-help advice or executive coaching. It is a process of research-proven, emotional surgery that gets at the heart of your issues and heals them at their source. If you’re like many of my clients, you’ve conquered in the workplace and found success. And yet, you’re not at peace with your life. Whether it’s stress, trauma, addiction, strained relationships, or a lack of motivation, something needs to change. Often, my role is to help successful men get their hearts back. I can help you rediscover your purpose, reconnect with what matters, heal your insecurities, improve your relationships, and leave a legacy.

Psychotherapy is a journey into yourself. It is a treat to take time, slow down and understand yourself. We all have a story. The story we have written about ourselves defines who we are . In psychotherapy I help people see and understand the story they tell themselves. The problem is that the story we tell ourselves can be filled with obstacles, negativity, and darkness. I can help you rewrite your story so that you can find resources to overcome those obstacles, light in the dark places, and ultimatly a less burdensome way into the future.

Whether you’re struggling with low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, trauma/PTSD, relationship issues, or other life challenges, Psychotherapy can help you feel better. Just like in traditional in-person therapy, I listen to your concerns with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Together we determine the best course of treatment so you can achieve your goals. Learning and becoming more self aware will help you navigate life's hurdles in the future. Psychotherapy helps us understand ourselves better and how to break cycles that have been around for generations. Psychotherapy can help you learn positive and healthy coping skills.

Psychotherapy or "talk therapy" is a therapy that works by helping individuals express their concerns or difficulties and working with them on finding ways to cope with their current stressors. Therapy sessions can be conducted individually or in a group. Research has shown that most people that receive consistent psychotherapy with trained clinicians show a decrease in their current symptoms and an increase in their quality of life.

First and foremost, you must feel that your doctor understands you, gets you. Then finding out exactly what you need and want I will choose the techniques that will get you there the fastest, the best current methodology available. Psychotherapy is helping you live life , becoming free of fear and uncertainty, and having love and joy instead. Learning to be present and mindful will stop the endless hours of worry and stress. One must not "look back in anger or forward in fear, but around in awareness".

We approach the treatment of mental Illness by encouraging the exploration of unresolved and deeply rooted conflicts, often of an unconscious that may lead the person to behave in rigid and self-defeating ways, by questioning the veracity and effectiveness of distorted ways of thinking and perceiving the world and by empowering the person to modify behaviors that perpetuate psychopathology and emotional disturbance. We also include life-coaching techniques to help people set attainable goals based on personal values, abilities and interests.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy, encompassing modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), offers a powerful and multifaceted process for addressing a wide range of mental health concerns beyond just depression.

CBT equips clients with practical tools to identify and modify unhelpful patterns, fostering healthier coping mechanisms and improved emotional regulation.

This holistic process empowers individuals to gain self-awar
