Individual Psychotherapy for Adults

Reasons for Seeking Therapy

People seek therapy for a variety of reasons: 

  • Help with important relationships. 
  • Return to a state of calm, confidence and joy. 
  • To achieve a sense of hope for the future
  • To regain a lost vitality in living. 
  • To find creativity and achieve more in their lives. 
  • To overcome self-destructive behaviors and addictions

Individual psychotherapy and counseling provides the space and opportunity to find out what is getting in the way of a vital, happy and productive life.


Even though it is called "individual" therapy, important people in your life are sometimes brought into session when it is helpful and if you want them there.

Trauma Therapy

Sometimes, terrible things happen to people. Often, the effects pass in time. But, for some, the effects may continue  and even worsen. Even adults who suffered trauma in childhood can suffer lasting effects.


Trauma therapy has become much more effective in recent years. Relief is very possible.
