“Most people seek therapy because something isn’t working. Sometimes people do not feel equipped to handle life’s problems – work stress, family stress, health issues, etc. Many individuals feel stuck trying to solve problems the same way when those solutions are no longer helpful. This pain can leave someone suffering and feeling helpless.” I want to help you gain perspective and new knowledge and skills for change. Often this involves being more aware and present in the moment. Many people do not recognize the power they have to create positive change in their lives. I will help empower you to find your strengths and make change.

Entering into therapy can be a difficult decision. My goal is to help make that transition easier by focusing on my client's strengths and abilities and encouraging a path of self-growth. I use a collaborative style, making the individual an active participant in the process. We will work to define the most serious problems, set realistic expectations, and focus on symptom reduction. My promise to all my clients is that I will respect them as individuals and work my hardest to improve their lives. The hardest part is often taking the first step, call to arrange for a free, no obligation 30 minute in person or phone consultation.

Being human and experiencing life’s ups and downs can sometimes take a mental and emotional toll. Our stories are not meant for everyone, but sharing what is held inside with someone trustworthy can liberate us, help shift our perspective, and help us find new ways to welcome wellness back into everyday life. I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life, ages, genders, or in a phase of discovering themselves. I believe every individual deserves the opportunity to explore their mental health, heal, evolve, and ultimately thrive in today’s complex world.
