Most clients come into therapy because of their current difficulty resolving a "presenting problem". That problem could be grief. It could be relationship troubles with partners, peers, or parents. It could be tied to substance abuse. Or trauma. Or both. It could be work-related. It could be a million things. Whatever the presenting problem, it tends to give the client physiological and psychological discomfort, which leads to the search for answers and relief, which often leads to counseling.
I strive to provide clients a judgment-free space, where they can openly and safely explore their feelings and thoughts related to the presenting problem. Clients often feel "stuck" in "no-win" situations. Through therapy, we try to find acceptance and/or solutions to those presenting problems.
It's never too late to ask for help. It's never too late to seek relief. If you are ready to make sense of your suffering, you may be ready for counseling. Reach out today for a free consultation to get started. That first step is always the hardest!

Coming from a background in law enforcement, I tend to use police metaphors to help illustrate important points. I advise clients we are going on an "investigation" together to "crack the case". I stress, however, that I am not the "lead detective" and "deputize" clients, empowering them on the most important investigation of their life!

Being trained as a relational therapist, I tend to conceptualize client's cases from a family systems perspective. That being said, I strive to provide therapy from a person-centered approach. I may be an "expert" at psychological techniques and theories, but the client is the expert on their life. Together we embark on a journey to discover the root causes of the current distress.
