I came to a career in therapy after working for over a decade as a software developer. I enjoyed the creativity and problem-solving of that profession, but there was always some part of me that felt unfulfilled. To exist for extended periods in such close communion with the machine produced a sense of being cut off – from my own body, from other people, and ultimately from life. In my own therapeutic journey I developed the means to reconnect with these parts of myself, and found my life growing richer and more complex as a result. [Read More]

I believe that in order to be truly happy, we need to learn to make conscious choices. We learn and internalize so much from our parents, peers, and society, and this often unconsciously dictates how we live our lives. By challenging the beliefs that we have held, we discover who we truly are—and learn to make decisions based on what will actually make us happy. Most of us carry some pain from the past, as well. Whether we have experienced difficult events or lived in a chronically challenging environment, there are often old wounds that deeply affect us. Another aspect of our work is to focus on healing the pain from our past so that it no longer controls how we feel or act in the present. [Read More]
