It's not magic. And you don't need years of therapy to experience sustainable positive change. You need focus, depth, and a structured approach discovered and developed to help you get it.

I specialize in intensive, short-term dynamic psychotherapy aimed at sustainable relief from your symptoms and struggles as swiftly as possible.

That's why I specialize in treatment based on the powerful neuroscience of deep learning to rapidly uncover and resolve the root causes of the inevitable problems and patterns that appear in our lives.

First session

We will dive straight in: no lengthy intake history, no aimless venting. From our first session to our last, we will follow a simple plan. Is it easy? No. Can it work for you? There's only one way to find out.

Strengths

I have developed the skills of intense focus and seeing patterns.

Ideal clients

When it comes to your mental health, maybe you'd rather take the direct route than the scenic route in therapy even if it's more challenging? Maybe you are looking for someone to help you cut through all the background noise and repetitive thinking so you can get authentic change? If so, I am ready to help you do just that.

Treatment methods

Psychodynamic

90% of what goes on in the brain is unconscious, so we need to go underneath your thoughts.

Ken is very adept at recognizing root causes and explaining the relevance of emotional dynamics. He has a way of validating my experience while at the same time being direct. His observations challenge me to stay with, actually feel and unpack my emotions instead of relying on intellectualizing the experiences I bring to the table.
