I offer counseling for adults and couples struggling with a wide variety of concerns. You may be dealing with a recent life transition, concerns around depression, alcohol/drug use, loss of loved one, or want help healing from trauma related to a specific event or childhood.

People can be much more than the sum of their life experiences and roles they have adapted to. For a variety of reasons we get trapped by our pasts, or our lives becomes too hard to keep up with. Maybe it feels like the life you are living is someone else's script and you want to be and feel differently. If any of this rings true at all I believe I can help.
My focus is to support you as we explore parts of your Self, life, and relationships that either lift you up or hold you down. I understand how beginning this process can be difficult but, this first step of connecting with me will be easier than you have imagined. It all starts with a text, email, or phone call.
