My Approach
You're Exactly as Uncertain as When You Started
Getting this far changes nothing about how certain you feel. You're standing where you already were, with the same doubt you brought.
On the way in you were reviewing your own history, checking whether what happened to you counts as bad enough. Old failures came up, and so did the therapists who didn't help, and so did every reminder of what other people seem to handle without trouble.
You feel alone, and stupid for feeling alone.
Your Plan Gets Cut to Your Case
I went after the whole range on purpose. It's the only way I know to learn what the far ends teach.
The most severe presentations I could get near, and the ones that looked too small for anybody to mention. Both ends say what the middle keeps quiet about.
Thousands of people have sat here and told me how their earlier therapy went. That's why your plan gets cut to your case.
It starts with pieces you'd recognize. DBT gives you skills for handling hard feeling without letting it run your day. "Parts Theory" is in there too, where the different parts of you learn to work together.
You'll Reach a Point Where Turning Back Stops Being Available
This work has a point of no return in it. I've watched plenty of people walk up to it.
The worries you've rehearsed for years come looking for you and go home empty. That's frightening, because it feels like you're leaving everything you knew about surviving.
So this is where the work stalls. It's where people would rather turn around. And the hesitation itself gives it away.
The moment you least want to move is the moment this asks the most of you. That's when I put the facts in front of you, including the one you've been steering around, until the only direction left is the new one.
I'll Tell You Out Loud the Day I See It
I'll tell you the day I see that point arrive. You'll hear it out loud, and you'll hear how glad I am.
By then the signs are everywhere and they're hard to miss. Being ready stops asking you for hyper focus and mind reading.
Old feelings from years back quit issuing warnings about right now. You come out from under the survival demands your midbrain has been making.
You make an ordinary choice about an ordinary afternoon. That's not a bad start for a previously imprisoned mind.
Find Out Whether We're a Fit
Whether this works comes down to fit, and that gets settled first.
The initial phone consultation is free. Its only job is to find out whether I'm the right fit for what you're dealing with.
Use the contact form to ask for one. Morgan runs my schedule and will get the call on the books for you.
Bring the doubt with you. You know what it measures now.
Let’s Start the Great Retrieval
Whatever brought you here has taken enough of your time already.
A free consultation is a great way to put me on the spot. Interview me, and find out whether I qualify to help you with what you need.
If the answer is no, you’ll hear that from me, too.
