Leading a fulfilling and happy life can be challenging and may even seem impossible at times.

I use a variety of approaches in my therapeutic work according to what works for each individual person. Together we'll focus on trying to understand the root causes of various problems and repetitive patterns of behavior that are difficult to change.
