Sometimes life is just tough...and we can't see through the fog and darkness. We lose our way, or something bumps us off our path. Sometimes we need a new direction so we can be all that God created us to be. We might need to change our behavior...and more importantly change our thinking. Pain has been a part of all our lives. How we deal with pain will determine much of our future.

As a Clinical Therapist my primary goal is to assist you in exploring and understanding the issues causing stress in your life. To help you explore choices and how you want to address the issues. My next goal is to assist you to move forward or learn to live affectively with the issues in a positive, healthy manner. It is not my job to solve or tell you what you need to do with your life. I ask questions to develop understanding of you and your issue. I make suggestions based on past experience with understanding of the issues presented. My responsibility is to respect the choices you want to make.
