Services
We start where you are. I ask questions, and I listen with care, an inquiring mind, and an open heart. I share my thoughts in an honest and direct way, and I actively engage with you about the changes you want to make in your life. Together we develop a plan to help you realize your goals.
I draw on my years of experience and training in different therapeutic approaches to help you create good changes in how you feel, in your relationships, and in your life.Therapy can take different forms depending on the kinds of issues a person needs help with. Sometimes, a short-term, practical, problem-solving focus with specific strategies or relationship advice is what helps the most.

Hypnosis is gentle, guided inner work done in a relaxed and focused state usually with eyes closed. This state is called "trance." By shifting into trance, we enter a state in which we are more in touch with unconscious processes. It is a state where deep learning, healing, and change are more available.
My work with you and your partner begins with my providing an emotionally safe environment in which each of you can bring up the "tough subjects" needing to be addressed. Through in-depth discussions we explore these issues from each person's perspective. I do not judge or take sides in this process.
Below are some quotations I have collected from a variety of sources. Most are short, and a few are longer. I include them on this site because you may find one among them that stirs something true within you or that is of support in some way. It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work, and when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun our real journey.
My office hours are from 11am to 9pm Tuesday through Thursday, and from 10 to 5:30 pm on Fridays and Saturdays. I do have a sliding scale for people whose financial situation is difficult. If I can't slide as low as you need, I do my best to provide you with referrals to more affordable treatment options.

Nick was recommended to me by my Hypnotherapy teacher. I had tried a number of hypnotherapists prior to Nick and fortunately I haven't been disappointed in our work together. Its hard to find a marriage and family therapist that has in depth training in hypnotherapy, or so it seems from my own personal experience.
It's really great to meet a therapist that is so grounded, genuine and present. Not only is he deeply engaged, he is also so incredibly compassionate, and yet so humble at times. Apart from his generous ability to nurture and validate me as a client , he also does a great
