Hope Haven Therapy, PLLC

Hope Haven Therapy, PLLC Psychotherapy That is what therapy is all about! At different points in our lives, everyone can benefit from therapy.

Sometimes we all can use a little help on life’s journey--when things seem dark, when we feel like we are drowning in emotions, challenges, or thoughts, or when we just need someone to help bring things into focus as we set a course toward achieving our goals. Therapy is not having someone with all the right answers tell you what to do or doing things to you; it is having a professional guide to d

raw out your goals and strengths, to breathe hope into difficult times, and to assist with perspective and skills. I am excited to share this opportunity to explore and to engage in therapy with me FOR FREE via the Art Therapy Institute. Don’t worry--you do not need to be an artist; we will use whatever works best for you. I offer psychotherapy to individuals experiencing a variety of challenges and/or desiring to undertake a process of exploration. Often when people think about therapy, they do so with the story of “what’s wrong with me.” My perspective, however, is that “you are not the problem; the problem is the problem.” So, although I am interested in walking alongside you as you tackle the things that are getting in the way of having the life you desire, I bring a slightly different approach--one that focuses on alternative versions of our personal stories, writing the future we hope to have, thinking through the roles we perform, and finding your strengths and what works and building upon them. I do not believe that any one approach works for every problem and every person any more than we could use a single tool to make every home or auto repair. We will work together to identify the right tools to do the work at hand.

Unfortunately, a lot of people think of therapy as being for the "broken." *Therapy is for those who want to live their best lives.* Sometimes that means some repair work, but most of the time it means helping a diamond to shine. Sleep. Food. Faith. Relationships. Exercises. Learning. Creativity. Those are all things we explore and polish in therapy. If you could use help living your best life, maybe we should talk.

We can carry some pretty ugly stories engraved on our hearts, stories that take us to places different than our values. If you think it might be time to edit those stories and to chart a path that takes you toward the person you want to be, we should talk.

This video demonstrates our common humanity. That every one of us experience unwanted thoughts and feelings. Through processes of openness, awareness and engagement we can learn to hold these experiences lightly. We can learn to show ourselves, our inner and outer world both compassion and kindness....

This is so my experience. I am honored to work mostly with men as they put down burdens and walk more fully in who they really are. Our sessions are deeply engaging and rich, no doubt in part because they feel met where they are rather than having to perform a script that feels incongruent. I hear,....
