Or, maybe my musing on love stems from the chaos and division we see not only here in the United States but globally as we experience the brutality of war? It could come from the reality and notion of hate crimes in our news today. Whatever the root, and likely all the above, I have been thinking of love and want [...]

Embracing Life’s Messiness into New Growth: Insight from a Depth Therapist

Fall is finally here and after one of the hottest Texas summers on record, I want to be outside every minute I can. The call to get my hands dirty, to feel the earth between my fingers and under my nails so strong that digging in the dirt is what I found myself doing recently. With intention, I dug with bare hands, no gloves or a shovel! I simply couldn’t wait to get my hands dirty. Delightful it was, even though I was a bit messy when done - dirty hands, feet, knees and even my face and the [...]

As a relational therapist, I've witnessed the struggles that individuals face when caught in the web of codependency, but I've also seen the incredible transformations that can occur when they embark on the journey to break free.
