For 30+ years I have been helping people struggling with relationships, as well as depression, anxiety, and meaning of life issues.

Ultimately, I am not just trying to help people feel better, but to actually become better, recognizable both by them, and the people who matter in their lives.

We can't say goodbye to a problem until we say hello to it. If you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, depressed, alone or hopeless, therapy is a place where it's OK to talk about the hard & confusing things, where you get to tell your truth as you see & feel it. If you experience shame, guilt, disappointment, regret, anger or resentment in your life, counselling gives you an opportunity to understand yourself better without being rushed or judged. Listening to all the parts of you that want to be heard can lead to a sense of relief, better relationships & sleep, feeling more grounded & living a more meaningful & authentic life
