Hi, I'm Steve

My preferred treatment modalities are eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), ego state therapies such as internal family systems (IFS) and developmental needs meeting strategy (DNMS), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), psychodynamics, family systems, and person-centered therapy (Rogerian Therapy).

​

If you’ve made the decision to find a therapist, you’ve taken a courageous step toward personal growth and feeling better. How often do you relate to yourself from a place of harsh judgment, anger, and shame, being pulled in multiple directions by conflicting feelings and self-beliefs? We are physical, mental, and social beings who have tremendous resilience, strength, and wisdom within us. We all seek meaningful connections with others and with the world around us, though we may have lost that sense of meaningful connection for a while, perhaps for a very long while.

​

We all have a natural capacity within us from birth to heal the wounds of past experiences and grow toward our potential. What if you could tap into that natural capacity and relate to the world, loved ones, and yourself with greater trust, acceptance, and compassion, thereby creating the meaningful connections that make for a contented life?

 

Similar to physical health, improving our mental health is hard and demanding work. I’ll walk your journey with you with an approach that we build together and that works for you.
