One-to-One Therapy and Coaching

Joel's orientation blends talk therapy with coaching, expressive arts therapies, and contemplative practices. Clients are empowered to discover their own solutions, looking to the body and mind as creative sources and vehicles for emotional release, healing, and insight.

This is a very different kind of psychotherapy from the norm: it is fun, creative, and fully embodied — an active dialogue between day-to-day reality and the world of imagination, creativity, and play.

Typical sessions are one and a half to two hours in length, with most clients meeting once every two to three weeks.

Insight Improvisation for Couples

In couples therapy, Joel helps provide a safe environment for couples to explore what is working and what needs work in their relationship, through the vehicles of mindful dialogue and active exercises.

This unique approach—which combines talk therapy with coaching, expressive arts therapy, and contemplative practices—can help couples understand and heal deficits in communication and listening, physical intimacy, spontaneity and playfulness, and camaraderie and teamwork.

Session length and frequency are customized to fit couples’ needs. Please contact us to learn more.

Insight Improvisation Group Work

With gathering interest in experiential and contemplative methods, there is potential to establish an ongoing group meeting regularly in the Boston area.

Group work provides an opportunity to interact with others through the principles of mindful awareness and speech. Each session features group dialogue as well as experiential exercises that help members explore core life issues and patterns with the support of others, guided by Joel’s coaching and facilitation.

Please contact us if you would be interested in this unique opportunity.
