Life is full of challenges that overwhelm us. It stops us in our tracks and we think "how did I get here?" Whether it is grief, fear, lack of motivation, excessive worrying, indecisiveness, poor choices, trauma, addiction, or relationship problems: therapy is a tool to help, if you are open and reach out. This is when you need someone who is genuine, safe, non-judgmental, caring, supportive, and redirects gently to help you decide the next steps in YOUR journey. In therapy, we will focus on healing, process past wounds, identify triggers, create healthy boundaries, explore solutions, and find the path that is right for you.
I have worked in the field of social work for over 20 years in a variety of settings, from schools, jails, youth authorities, probation, communities, and group homes, with a multitude of populations, children, teens, families, couples, homeless, and severely mentally ill. The solution is waiting, when you are ready to make the changes necessary.
Please will allow me to walk along side you on your journey to healing. To be that someone who can see your situation from another perspective, someone who can truly see who you are right now. To provide a safe environment, that is non judgmental, encouraging, and validating. All you have to do is be open and honest with yourself and reach out for help.
