Narrative Therapy for Individual Adults, Couples and Families
Identifying the social and material conditions in which emotional and interpersonal life is lived enhances the context, strengthens the foundation, and informs the direction of our work.
*Families with children who suffer from 'behavior' and/or 'psychiatric' challenges are welcome. I strongly encourage parenting sessions or family therapy before seeking individualized behavioral or psychiatric interventions for children.
Intensive Therapy is also offered. When schedules allow, these weekend sessions often span the course of a day.
Art Therapy Workshop
Offered by Dominique Decock
Drawing and painting are tools of wellbeing. For years I have watched my students face challenges in their art, which empower them to accept challenges in their life with playful creativity. I invite you to do the same. Enhance your therapeutic process through meditation, conversation, creating and sharing art.
