I would like to share my thoughts on psychotherapy from a therapist’s perspective.
   
In a theraputic setting, it is possible to live a whole life-time in an hour or have a marriage and a divorce in fifteen minutes. Sometimes therapy can be intense!

As the client tells their story, I am looking for the presence of that one moment which offers the possibility of a real and true connection. Now, when it shows itself, we can begin the building of trust and bring into view the bridge to transformation.

I believe a good therapist brings to the relationship nothing less than the wholeness of his or her being. Like a well-tuned instrument s/he resonates with the deepest and most unconscious, unspoken thoughts and feelings of the client.

While providing a safe and accepting space, the therapist can actively become a catalyst for the healing process. I envision with insight and imagination the direction in which growth may best be achieved in concert with the client’s expression of their own individual needs.

It is a complex and beautiful dance; and what a thrill it is to witness the unfolding of spirit!
