AZ: In person/Telehealth; UT: Telehealth. After 15 years of working in therapy and social work, I have come to find that people are incredibly resilient! You have made it through 100% of what you’ve experienced, which is quite remarkable. When it seems like life is too overwhelming we can all benefit from more support and an outside perspective. It is a brave thing to dare hope for a brighter future. But I hold to the philosophy that, "There are far, far better things ahead, than any we leave behind." We cannot change the past, but we can take advantage of the present and seek to influence the future.

So glad you're here. I'm accepting, flexible and nonjudgmental. When deep emotional wounds and needs are tended to, we often function better because we feel better. We may find that we embrace unhelpful beliefs about ourselves and others after experiencing difficulties. Befriending and/or challenging the inner critic is essential and enlightening; this process will even be fun at times! Thoughts, feelings, behaviors, relationships, and environment are dynamically intertwined. There are several entry points of interruption to strategically approach life’s challenges, or “opportunities for excellence”. Small steps are preferred!
