Some clients come to me determined to understand why they find themselves entering the very relationships or situations they set out to avoid. Others have concerns about marital discontent. Maybe it's a new medical diagnosis, or an old way of coping that no longer works. Perhaps it's struggle rooted in childhood or related to aging.
While life can at times involve struggle, even suffering, my work gives me undeniable proof that human nature provides inordinate potential for creative problem-solving. I encourage clients to tap into this capacity and together we create strategies for moving forward, with an eye toward healing.

The relief you seek is inside of you…let’s find it and make it stronger than the problem! You may be fed up with using/abusing substances to cope with other issues (anxiety, depression, post-trauma, etc), feeling a happier life will always be out of your reach or tired of looking in the mirror and seeing shame, guilt, or discontent. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. You’re ready to relieve yourself of the control substances seem to have over you . You’re ready to regain the confidence in yourself you once had. Most of all, you’re ready to flourish in life rather than just live (survive).
