Find a Therapist

In this approach to therapy, dreams, illness, depression, restlessness, and much more can lead to a deeper exploration of the experience and meaning of life. C.G. Jung stated "Our hearts glow, and secret unrest gnaws at the root of our being." Come and explore.

Your experiences are unique and there is no one-size-fits-all to therapy. At your first appointment we will discuss your concerns and learn more about how those concerns are impacting the things in life that you care about. Then we will develop a plan. We believe that therapy should be productive, so we will work from the beginning to make sure we are moving in the direction you want to go. Similar to a doctor or dentist, our vision is that we can build a relationship that is lasting. We may meet more regularly while you are going through difficult times. Once you are feeling better maybe we meet for a yearly “check-in” or you come back if life gets hard again. There is no right or wrong way. We want you to have access to support when you need it.
