It is truly my joy and privilege to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families on their journey towards hope and healing. People consider therapy for many reasons and every reason is significant. Life can be difficult and suffering is inevitable at times. Relationships can also be challenging and people often desire more positive connection and understanding in relationship with those they love. I work with individuals, including children (age 7+), couples, and families to address these issues. My caseload primarily includes clients experiencing anxiety, depression, attachment difficulties, and marital and family conflict.

Do you look at your partner and get the sense you're "just roommates"? Is your gut telling you he's not "just friends" with that co-worker? Has your sex life lost its luster? So many people struggle in their relationships, and it's so sad, because there IS something you can do. Yes, it's scary to ask for help, and you might not want others to know things aren't going well. But doing nothing only means the problems will get bigger. Instead of ignoring the problems until they're too big to fix, get help now.
