In my 40 plus years as a psychotherapist, I've heard many times: "I want to be happy, to feel peaceful inside myself, but I can't seem to get there" or "I feel badly telling my friends and family. I worry they get tired of listening to me." There are many reasons people feel stuck in their anxiety, depression, or relationship problems, and feel immobilized by them. Understanding what is causing problems can help you feel less stuck and immobilized, more at peace, and more self-confident. Psycho...

You’re the go-to person - the one everyone relies on. Your friends and family see you as competent, put-together, and strong. And while that’s helped you achieve, the pressure to meet such high expectations is exhausting. You spend so much time caring for other people’s needs that your own get lost in the process. Saying no feels like a risk. What if the relationship falls apart? What if they see the real you and decide it’s not enough? On the outside, your life looks great. Inside, you’re strug...

Hello, What I love about my work is helping people to be and become the people they want to be. When we can look at the things that shape our lives, then we can make better choices about what to do next. That’s easier said than done. We may have to pay attention to things we weren’t aware of— or didn’t want to notice in the first place. It’s hard to change what you can’t acknowledge. Whether it’s in the private corners of your mind or the broad inequalities of society, it’s hard to look at life’...
