Individual Therapy
“Vulnerability is the core of shame, fear and struggle for worthiness, but it appears it’s also the birthplace of joy, of creativity, of belonging, of love.” –Brene Brown, TED Talk

Couples Therapy “Whenever you’re in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can be the difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor is attitude.” –William James

Dream Work
"A dream not understood is like a letter not opened." –The Talmud |
In one to one work, we will look
for ways to grow in awareness, insight into, understanding of and acceptance of
who we are. We will focus on
relating to ourselves with kindness, and on ways to make progress in the areas
that matter.
Experiencing positive self-empowerment may be an outgrowth of this work. We’ll work together for a 50” hour per session, at a level of frequency you determine – although it’s frequently supportive if initially sessions are closer together. |
The challenges of learning how to
be true to ourselves within a relationship, while simultaneously being honest
and loving in our communication with each other will be a focus of the work
done in couples therapy. Resolving
differences effectively, seeing the higher purposes and value in the
relationship, and increasing mutual caring, respect, support and intimacy will
be primary purposes in our work together.
Couples therapy works best when 1 ½ or 2 hours is scheduled, so that I can hear from both members of the couple and accomplish a meaningful piece of work in the session. Members of a couple are often supported in exercises we create on the spot, targeted at changing interactional patterns that don’t work. |
Looking at the communication from our
own higher wisdom as it comes to us through our dreams can reveal opportunities
for growth. We may come to deeper
understandings of ourselves and of those with whom we share our lives. We may
find direction in the areas where we have questions as to our next steps. We may come to enjoy a fuller experience
of our own inner wealth and beauty.
My Dream Work is available for individuals or groups. It may take place within both the Guiding & Mentoring
relationship, or within the Therapy relationship.
