One of the best representations of the difficulties people experience in interpersonal relationships and their relationship with themselves is expressed in the art installation at Burning Man called “Love”, by Alexander Milov. In my therapy practice, I help guide individuals, couples and families in reconnecting with and healing their inner child so that they can better connect with others in every relationship in their lives. Like the art installation shows; we can outwardly be hurt and angry but internally yearn to connect with our spouse, partner, or children. It is my mission to give therapy clients tools to heal their inner child and foment the bonds that connect us to one another in positive ways.

Whether it is a professional relationship with co-workers, a friendly relationship with neighbors, a family relationship with loved ones, an intimate relationship with a spouse, or most importantly, a loving relationship with self, relationships are everywhere and part of everyday life.

Our ability to establish boundaries, communicate feelings and needs, process challenges and traumas, and forgive and maintain hope is essential to nurturing these relationships and creating peace for ourselves and those around us. No matter what stage of life you are in or what difficulty you are experiencing, therapy can be a helpful, healing process.
