I know how exhausting trying to find a therapist can be. You just want someone who gets it, understand you and helps you feel better. This sucks. Not feeling good sucks. You just want to feel good and be happy and right now life does not feel that way. I know life can change and it can get better. I believe that truth with all of my being for your life.

I work well with clients who are motivated to change their lives. Our greatest challenges come during times of big life transitions. Through active listening and genuine empathy, I help my clients focus upon the inherent solutions to their most pressing problems. Motivation to change comes with the willingness to look closely and investigate the stories we tell ourselves. Often, I discover with my clients that their oldest and most damaging internal stories are simply not true. By having a fellow human who is open and fully present witness our lives, we can discover the very real possibility for greater health.

Joy of life is always accompanied by pain, and there are times that you feel beaten and defeated. Psychological symptoms can surface and compromise your happiness and functioning during these struggles. Therapy can help you to stay on the right track or find the right directions to minimize unnecessary sufferings.

People come to therapy for all kinds of reasons. Sometimes we keep repeating behaviors we know hurt us and those around us but cannot seem to stop. Sometimes we need a new perspective to get us back on track. Talking things out in a safe space with an empathic listener can be life changing. I believe therapy should be a collaborative partnership where we spend time building trust with one another and tailoring treatment to your specific needs. I am direct but kind, curious but patient, and always open to feedback from my clients.
