Marriage and Family Therapy Services - East

I have exciting news to share with my followers...

As many of you know, after 3 years of COVID isolation, I decided to close down my in-person Psychotherapy/Marriage and Family Therapy practice I'd built up for the prior 22 years and move my family and my practice to the beach. Since then, I've been mainly doing remote therapy, but began studying for a Psychedelic Psychotherapist Certification.

As I have begun offering Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy and Integration service to my clients, I've started working in-person again, and it is SOOOO incredibly wonderful to be back in a face-to-face way!!

I've found a permanent office where I will begin working in-person, starting 1 day a week, in midtown Wilmington, near the Whole Foods on Park Avenue. I will be available for in-person therapy or integration sessions on Mondays from 9 to 5, with some breaks. For Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, I have the option of coming to the client's home, or can have the client come to the office group space on any other day of the work week (with prior appointment necessary).

I am excited to be moving back into the direction of being in-person with my clients! Post-COVID has been a long, difficult and sometimes very lonely time.

Next week I am heading to Eugene, Oregon, for a week-long Practicum, and then all I will need to do is pass the certification test and I will be a Certified Psychedelic Psychotherapist!

What a privilege!!

“Rest is not idleness.” — John Lubbock

In a culture addicted to productivity, rest is radical. It’s how we refill our cup before pouring into others.

Self-love isn’t indulgence—it’s the foundation of every healthy relationship. When we neglect ourselves, we teach others to do the same.

“You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.” ~ Buddha

Be careful about having relationships with people with no emotional intelligence. They will never understand you, they will personalize everything, and you will never be seen or heard.

Be careful about having relationships with people who can't regulate their emotions, you will always be at the mercy of their rages and bad moods.

Be careful about having relationships with people with no self-awareness, they have no idea how their behavior affects the people around them, so it's a matter of time before you get hurt.

Be careful about having relationships with people without empathy, they will never see or care about how you feel.

If no one has ever told you, I am telling you now. Look for people in your life with emotional intelligence, self-awareness, empathy, and the ability to regulate their emotions or you will be at the mercy of their dysfunction and pay the price for their immaturity and lack of growth.

I continue to find that Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy is leading to profound and rapid healing -- especially with clients who have struggled with trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD and even some with chronic pain!
