I believe that healthy people participate in counseling to become healthier. Sometimes we need some support and assistance along the way to heal from our childhood, let go and move on from some challenges that we have faced or deal with some current difficult issues or losses. I would like to be the person who guides you through this growth process that counseling will provide. It is wonderful to have someone listen just to you and to reflect and understand how you are feeling. I will celebrate with you as you grow and meet your goals. Call today for a free phone consultation.

What? How? Navigating college can be difficult but should be a time of growth and self-exploration. For many students with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Order) or ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) it can be an overwhelming process. Having a community or group to rely on helps lessen the load and takes the pressure off from constant reminders from parents or others, as well as the frustration of applying tips from neuro-typical individuals who mean well but often have trouble understanding what it is like to be neuro-divergent. Come join our small group community. Groups limited to 8-10 people.

Depression, anxiety and problems in relationships often cause deep anguish and pain - just getting by each day is tough. We often struggle alone believing things will never get better. Friends and family urge us to just get over it, but sometimes that makes it feel worse. You need someone to talk to. In the safety and privacy of our offices, you will have your therapist's unwavering attention, devoted to helping you untangle the mess that exists in your life. Together, we will help you change what you thought was unchangeable but also accept what you thought was unacceptable.
