It's difficult to find the right therapist, with the many different treatment approaches, personalities, and even worldviews. As a Catholic-Christian therapist, I know it's especially challenging to find a therapist who is professional and yet competent to understand the unique experiences and challenges of people of faith. There are many reasons why people might seek services, from feeling stuck to deeply hurting, or simply to pursue a greater degree of flourishing in one's life. Whatever the reason, it is my goal to provide the environment and relationship where healing and growth can occur.

With all that is going on around us, I have seen how we may need support now more than ever. Are you a bit more overwhelmed of late? Are you or your partner struggling with best communicating wants and needs? Are you reacting at times about things that did not previously bother you?
