Redefining emotional struggle
Welcome! This website introduces an approach to emotionally based struggle that offers a paradigm shift in what’s possible to achieve with them. I’ve always found it challenging to explain the unconventional approach I share because you really need to experience it to know and understand it. With that said, this and my blog website strive to introduce you to my work. If you resonate with what I share, I’ve found the best way forward is to simply get started with the work so you can get the chance to see what’s possible firsthand.
NEW CLIENT SPECIAL
New clients will receive the discounted rate of $25 an hour ($50 a session) for their first 4 sessions so you can get the chance to explore the work without a large financial barrier.
Testimonials
‘A lot of therapists can help you understand your problems. But, what sets Doug apart is that he can actually help you change your life and how you feel. Before working with Doug, I was suffering from depression, ADHD, and severe mood swings. I was on the verge of dropping out of school and was locked in a downward spiral. Doug helped me turn all that around. I successfully finished school, the demon of depression is a distant memory, and I feel stable and strong. And, when I do encounter challenges in my life or difficult emotions, my work with Doug has given me the tools and confidence to be able to handle them.’—MK
‘As a fairly traditionally trained psychologist, I was at first somewhat skeptical of placing my own mental health in the hands of a ‘non-traditional’ practitioner. However, as I worked with Doug, I found that he was able to quickly get an intuitive sense of who I was, what I was struggling with, and how I could best get myself ‘unstuck’. He balanced deep compassion and understanding of my struggles with a rather blunt and firm expectation of accountability and personal responsibility for doing the emotional work necessary to move forward. This was immensely helpful for me. I left my work with Doug much stronger and more emotionally complete than when I began, and at the end of the day, that is the mark of a successful therapy, traditional or not.’—Anonymous
