People come to therapy because they want to feel better. It might be relationship problems or anxiety/depression, but whatever the reason, life has become uncomfortable or painful. Most people want more understanding of themselves and their situation. That being said, change is what we all seek in therapy. Making your life work better is the goal. I focus on altering self-defeating ways, gaining perspective, and increasing insight that leads to change. The result is an improved quality of life.

In life we are going to encounter many obstacles. Some of those obstacles are going to seem insurmountable, which can lead to unhappiness. I believe we all deserve to be happy.

I enjoy working with clients from every background.
