Life rarely goes according to plan! That leaves us with the task of figuring out how to manage uncertainty, heartache, change, and challenges. No matter what issues you are dealing with, you don't have to manage it on your own. Therapy can be a place of support and safety, a place where you sort through what life has given you to find a path towards hope, health, and peace.
I believe that therapy can be brief and focused on specific issues or extended work to process complex situations. The beauty of therapy is that you can decide what your goals are, and we work together to accomplish them!
Whether you are looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, addiction, codependency, or adjusting to changes in your life, let's work together to create the changes you want and need!
