Tylor S. Lovins

We need help to feel secure in, trust, and make sense of our emotional experiences. When we don’t get the help we need, we can feel stuck, insecure, anxious, depressed, or hopeless. Over time, this often leads to patterns of feeling emotionally dead, chronically overstimulated, or, simply, feeling out of touch with oneself. Therapy is a kind of relationship in which we are able to recover our own sense of self by exploring those emotional experiences, large or small, that for whatever reason come to mind, stay with us, and make us pay attention to them.

The goal of psychotherapy is, plainly said, psychological growth. This means to have the capacity to tolerate pain, confusion, frustration in order to learn from our experiences and relate to our own sense of self which feels alive and real. I offer psychodynamic therapy focusing on the therapeutic relationship as a catalyst for change.

Our work together finds its primary elements in the thoughts, feelings, and dreams you bring and the process happening within you that cannot be produced by a technique but can be facilitated by our relationship and the various channels of communications, verbal and nonverbal, conscious and unconscious, formed between us.
