I provide Counseling and Psychotherapy for adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families and treat a wide range of problems and disorders. I am a solution-focused therapist which means that I am focused on the positives and building upon your strengths. It is a positive, optimistic and nonjudgmental orientation.

We need to feel understood, safe, and supported to create life-long change, and in my practice I work to establish a respectful and warm relationship where this growth and development can occur. I believe each person is capable of tremendous change and view giving the gift of therapy as an honor. I find by exploring both the past and the present, clients are better able to recognize life patterns which may be affecting their relationships, career, and overall mental health. However, I also believe each person is unique and do not utilize a "one-size-fits-all" approach. Rather, I work with clients in a collaborative manner, and together we establish the direction and pace of our work. I work with individuals and couples from a variety of cultural, ethnic, and spiritual backgrounds, sexual orientations, and gender identities. Overall, I think you will find my approach open, flexible, affirming, and engaging.

I also work with clients on issues of trauma and past abuse, body image and eating disorders, LGBTQI issues, and women's issues.

Mindset: Inspiration for the process of therapy can be drawn from one of the best movie quotes of all time, “No! Try not! Do or Do Not, There is no try.” These are very powerful words telling people, especially to those in therapy that you must either willingly make your own necessary and sometimes critical changes in your life or you don’t. Therapy is about actively regaining control of your personal energy. Therapy is a collaborative approach to healing and well-being between a client and therapist. The therapist helps guide a person into making better life decisions, but the client must intuitively think of new ways of managing their life stressors that they are comfortable starting and maintaining. Clients not willing to make changes for themselves will continue to spin helplessly and hopelessly out of control. The mind is constantly changing; people in therapy must also learn to continually adjust and adapt to new situations while keeping a mindful-eye on their past. Education and Training: Dr. Hurley received his Master of Arts (MA) in General and Theoretical Psychology at Fairleigh Dickinson University (FDU) in Teaneck, New Jersey. He graduated with a Doctoral Degree (Psy.D.) in Clinical Psychology at Forest Institute of Professional Psychology (FIPP) in Springfield, Missouri. At FIPP Dr. Hurley specialized in Marriage and Family Counseling. Other areas of training include neuro-psychology, anger management, bio-feedback, and pre-marital counseling. During his doctoral program he worked in a children’s psychiatric hospital. His internship was in community mental health, and he participated in a national study on Schizophrenia.

He worked with various criminals making sure that they received the help they needed and to minimize suicide attempts.

Therapeutic Stance: My approach to therapy with my clients is multi-faceted. There is no one therapy to fit all. I like to approach issues from a psycho-dynamic, family systems, CBT, Gestalt, existential, and medical stance. When dealing with mental health disorders you have to consider the mind as well as the body for the root of a problem. Therapy needs to be understandable by those who seek help and I have spent years refining my technique to help clients understand the issues they’re facing and the theories on how to resolve said issues. People feel more comfortable and understood if you can talk to them in the various places they are currently. I love to see individuals, couples, and groups in a calm, peaceful, and most importantly neutral environment. I love to make presentations to groups for psycho-educational purposes as well.

Sharing an intimate relationship with another, where we can blossom and grow to be our best selves, is our highest calling as humans. We come together with another to love, live, and laugh, to create a family, to experience the feeling of being loved and cherished. If only we had been given a compass at birth to help us navigate what seem like murky waters! Instead, we are left to figure out how to do the relate part of the relationship on our own. Often, good intentions are not enough to get us through misunderstandings—we need a little help to understand one other, and ourselves. When problems arise, as they naturally do in most relationships, we often feel adrift, betrayed, misunderstood. This period of conflict does not have to be a time of strife—it’s an opportunity for amazing growth—for the relationship, and for the individuals. Whether you’re new to, or experienced with, therapy, I can help you find the next step on your journey to the life you were meant to lead. I offer workshops for couples and individuals around the globe, combining more than 30 years of experience with different modalities such as Imago, Bioenergetics, and Expressive Arts. With compassion, humor, insight, fun (yes, fun!), and lots of creative energy, I’ll help you to learn to relate and communicate in a gratifying, heart connection way. Together, we will get curious about your life–we will play, we will unfold, and we will find the inspiration you need to live a fully expressed life.

If you are considering therapy, I am glad you are here. I am a licensed psychotherapist in private practice. I believe that individuals possess the key to their own well being; however, sometimes life can present obstacles that are difficult to overcome. Most people come up against some sort of obstacle at least once in their lives. When this happens, it is helpful to have a professional ally to collaboratively look at these areas of concern. Teamwork is an important component in making therapy successful. Sometimes talking about what is on your mind enables you to see things from a different perspective and seeing things from a different perspective can be a key ingredient in promoting personal growth and making better choices in the future. A goal of psychotherapy is that you get to know yourself in such a way that you realize your full potential and are able to live more authentically. If you need a safe space to work through a tough time or gain new perspectives and develop a better understanding of yourself and your relationships, I am here to help.

My approach also takes into account the larger forces that we have to deal with on a day to day basis in order to help therapy be more effective and lasting. I work from a Psychodynamic and Systemic framework but my honestly and authenticity is offered above all else.

Art therapy in Orange County - benefits children, families, teens and adults when just words don't work. Absolutely no art experience or ability is needed. Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses art supplies, images and the creative process as additional tools to express thoughts & feelings and to resolve conflicts and confusions. You and I will work together to create goals that focus on your specific needs. Needs often addressed include reducing behavior problems, fears & anxiety, overcoming large and small traumas, improving social skills & self awareness, and lowering stress.

Attachment issues are often pre-verbal and respond well to art interventions.

Whether you are feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, frustrated with your relationship or just in need of a change, I can help. I am committed to building meaningful therapeutic relationships & helping you learn how to make better choices in your life to increase fulfillment & achieve your goals. When problems arise, we often fall into familiar patterns of reacting & coping that may have served us previously, but presently are holding us back. My goal is to provide you with tools & techniques to choose thoughts & behaviors that eliminate suffering. This often involves learning to move towards discomfort and growing from its acceptance. My multicultural background has given me a sensitivity & awareness about the issues such people face. With an extensive background in music and dance I also enjoy infusing creative expressions into my work with clients. My areas of specialization include: * Multicultural couples & families * Relationship issues * Trauma/abuse* Mindfulness

I’m a trained psychotherapist with 15+ years experience working with adults and adolescents. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, OCD, depression, self-sabotaging behaviors, and relationship problems. I integrate various treatment approaches and theories in my work with clients, including somatic experiencing, cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, attachment theory, spirituality, and buddhist meditation. I work in an empathic and supportive environment, helping clients to rapidly get to the core issues which keep them stuck in their lives, unhappy in relationships, or chronically depressed, angry, or anxious. Almost always, what creates suffering is the avoidance of painful feelings and/or experiences. When we avoid these painful feelings, we become more anxious, more depressed, or more angry. This leads to a vicious cycle of problems within ourselves (i.e, depression) or in relationships, which cause us even more suffering. By bringing to the surface the deep and buried, often complex, underlying thoughts, emotions, and experiences and working them through (feeling them in the body, understanding their source), this frees them up. And the unwanted feelings (anxiety, depression) or behavior melt away on their own. This then allows us to be more connected to both ourselves and others, to have more intimacy in our relationships and to feel more fulfilled in general. Using this approach, significant and lasting change can happen rather quickly, much quicker than most other therapies out there. And because these changes occur at a deep level, they tend to be lasting.
