Even more so, the answer is rarely discovered. Therapy is derived from the meaning "to heal". As we understand, healing looks different to everyone. Therefore on your journey, it is important to Uncover, Recover and/or Discover those parts of your wonderful self that may be lost or damaged do to actions or beliefs of others or yourself.

My experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and couples over the past 40 years has demonstrated that no challenge is impossible, no situation hopeless. I see people dealing with issues typical of their phase of life, their relationships, their families, their use of substances, and/or mental illness ranging from the mild to the severe. Because I see people of all ages (16 and up) with all kinds of reasons for coming to see me, I'm best thought of as a general practitioner. I am, however, developing an increasing interest in working with the trans and gender diverse.
