I have been where you are. Suffering is a right of passage. The idea of sharing your thoughts and feelings with a stranger may seem odd at first, but when the therapeutic relationship is working, fear and pain become manageable and sometimes even fall away. Having problems can feel lonely and alienating, you deserve the opportunity to find an easier way. EXHALE…it will be ok:-) I have a relaxed approach with humor and an easy disposition. Unfortunately seeking help can be a burden in itself. Let’s talk for a session or 2 and see if there’s some resonance. Adolescents, Adults, Couples and Families, (thoughtful, high functioning).
Find the inner, HUM of OK! My clients discover how to be compelled by the opportunity to grow. Whether you are facing depression, anxiety, divorce, addiction or a painful family history you can enjoy the process. Many of my clients start as individuals, but share the gift of healing and power with their families who are encouraged to come in as well.
Pain in life is inevitable. When we experience loneliness, sadness and anger, we often hear our inner voice say, “I know it can get better, but will it?” It sucks to feel powerless in this inner battle. I’ll help you quickly collect your happier and more functional self, then you’ll be free to do the deeper work. All pain does not have to become suffering,

Underlying all issues is the quest for more peace and love (not just for hippies). Anger, anxiety, shame and self doubt (to name a few), can feel like anti-peace, ouch, not fun. The aim of our work is to figure out, what I'm thinking, saying and doing that may add to these issues and what we can do about them. Meaningful conversations, emotional education and behavioral techniques work well.

Therapist's will often tell you how they'll help you overcome 'X' problem with 'Y' solution, which is helpful but doesn't really address the big picture - how to create and maintain inner peace. Without peace, there is only problem management. Peace is yours to protect, let's take the time to find it and learn to practice it. Good peace is the platform for more love, who doesn't want that?
