Feeling stuck, lonely, depressed, anxious, fearful, unfulfilled, or going through a life transition? You're not alone...we all have to face life's challenges! I believe true change & growth require a willingness to take risks. Resiliency & self-trust are strengthened by facing & moving through adversity. Together, we can explore & map out a plan so you can take that leap of faith, try something new, face your fear, or learn to accept the things outside your control. Life can be hard at times...with insight, the right tools, supportive relationships, & a little courage you can get through almost anything & live a fulfilled life!
I am open-minded, straightforward, & genuine as having a strong rapport with your counselor is vital & therapy should be as transparent as possible. I have over 25 years experience in the mental health field specializing in Couples & Marriage Counseling, Infidelity, Divorce, Family Therapy, DBT, Relationship Issues, Trauma, Teens, Depression & Anxiety.
Asking for help can be hard...but you’ve already taken some steps by researching therapists and reading my profile. Just one more step and we can set up a free brief phone call to see if we are a good fit. I’m here...no judgment...no clinical jargon...no expectations other than to listen and discuss possible options to help you on your path!
