Relationships move us, give us life, and can even suck the life out of us. We were made for them. That is why I specialize in them - relationships with friends, family, colleagues, ourselves, our higher power. Properly realigning these problematic, strained, estranged relationships transforms your suffering into purposeful, worthwhile living. Ultimately your fullest life is my goal as your therapist. The greatest gift you can bring to your relationships is you. The best gift you can give the world is your relationships. What will you choose to do with these two important aspects of your one life?

There is so much joy, love, and abundance waiting for you. Are you ready to receive it? I work with teens and adults who are yearning for big changes in their life but need some extra support in getting there. I specialize in clearing the road blocks to your highest potential including past traumas, self-limiting beliefs, constricting emotions, and behaviors that are out of alignment with your soul's purpose. I work best with clients who are willing to dive deep to find the treasures within.

Therapy is a collaborative process between the therapist and the client. I use my clinical expertise to help my clients achieve what they want and need, but I expect my clients to be active participants in their healing process. My clients tend to gain new insights and deeper understanding of their issues and obtain new skills and changes by going through their healing process with me.

It takes a lot of courage to take that step forward and seek help. At some point, the pain of staying where you are can become overwhelming, and you're ready for something to change. You are not alone! I will work to hold a safe space for you and walk beside you as we explore both your strengths and your long-standing behavior and thought patterns that have supported you in the past but maybe aren't serving you anymore.

First, I want to honor and acknowledge your courage in seeking therapy. I believe that all individuals have the ability to seek growth, connect to their values, and are generally trying to do their best with the cards that life has dealt them. My hope as a therapist is that I can provide you with an authentic and safe connection that provides a space for you to tap into your ability to heal. In therapy I will work as your ally from a non judgmental stance and respect your own individual sense of agency.

Healthy and meaningful relationships are possible! We CAN grow closer to the people we love most. Therapy is a place where our discovery of ourselves impacts our relationships around us. Together, we can learn how to handle conflict and repair wounds. We can learn communication skills for deeper conversations and to live authentically. We can discover the "why" behind your habits. My name is Joshua and I specialize in relationships– whether that's with others, or within yourself. Finding the right therapist is so important!
