The Challenge
We may encounter difficulties in life beyond our understanding and beyond our ability to manage. We may have reached a puzzling crossroads, we may be in conflict with ourselves and others or we may want more harmony and direction in our lives. We may have been deeply wounded or traumatized in childhood. Sometimes all we know is we feel anxious, depressed, or something is missing or wrong.
There Is A Solution
Psychotherapy offers powerful approaches to these issues, and the symptom relief and change we seek comes naturally from a genuine, healthy human relationship with a skilled, compassionate psychotherapist. I diligently nurture and facilitate this innate healing process with you and at your pace. You can be seen, heard and understood without judgment. My approach is gentle and illuminating. I am active, relational and client-centered in our work, and my method is multi-faceted and integrated.
Sean is both a powerful force and a gentle guide as a therapist. His passion for what he does, for honoring humanness and big-level compassion are obvious..."

The First Step
With commitment and effort you can safely explore who you are, change old patterns of behavior and relationships, and create meaning and fulfillment in your life. You can deepen self-understanding and self-compassion, experience wholeness, access potent inner and outer tools and resources, ignite self empowerment, and enjoy a creative and effective relationship with yourself, others, and life.
And all you need to begin the journey inward is to take the first courageous step of reaching out for help.
"Evidence shows psychotherapy clearly works, and some therapies are a better match for certain individuals or circumstances. Some therapies are also designed to create meaningful change – improvements in people’s relationships, work life, sense of self, self-understanding, and capacity to navigate life’s ups and downs. These therapies help people get to the root of themselves and their struggles, as well as providing symptom relief. They may be more intensive, but for many, they create meaningful change.
Psychotherapies of depth, insight and relationship are powerful, evidenced-based, and long lasting, and include specific perspectives on learning, healing, and growth:
One size does not fit all;
Depth therapies are individualized and for the whole person;
Relationships heal relationships;
The quality of a therapeutic relationship is the most significant determinant of treatment success;
Sensitivity to the impacts of systemic oppression, intergenerational trauma and individual traumatic experience is intrinsic to therapies of depth, insight and relationship;
Emotional distress is not a disease."
