There are times when a brief approach to therapy is useful, to bring quick practical assistance and relief to suffering. Like most therapists, I am able to bring a variety of brief, solution-focused methods to bear on your issues that most urgently need to be addressed.

Or, you may sense that there is not so much a separate problem that can be pointed to “out there.” Instead, there may be a sense of great shifting and upheaval within, as you strive to give name and meaning to an aspect of your life that is trying to emerge.
