Has life become so challenging that you ask yourself, “Will it ever get easier?” As we journey down the road of life, we will run into bumps, make wrong turns, and even get into wrecks. When that happens, we need guidance to get back to being our happiest, healthiest selves. Whether you are facing the stress from common life-cycle transitions (e.g., beginning a new career, facing a big move, etc.), experiencing a loss of “spark” in your relationship, noticing a breakdown in communication with family members, or facing the psychological and biological comorbidity of chronic illness, I am here to help you navigate the road ahead.

Drop your mask and stop living on autopilot! Let's face it: everyday feels like a struggle, even though you seem to have everything that is supposed to make your happy. it feels like you have no purpose in your life anymore. You're asked to play so many parts in everyday life. The problem is that you're exhausted, and your sense of self was lost along the way. You've been so dedicated to everyone else that now you're feeling stuck and unhappy in your own life. Before you know it, you're fighting off anxiety, sadness, or relationship problems. Everyone looks to you for the answers, but you don't know how to fix anything anymore.

We can all benefit from the support therapy offers from time to time. Some reasons people come to me are: struggling in their romantic relationship; past experiences continually impact their current life; reliving past failures; feeling disconnected, stressed, anxious, stuck, or unloved; experiencing a loss, and needing someplace safe to connect; feeling out of control in their life; having difficulty reaching goals; or want to feel more joy, connection, and love in their life.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
