Living life on this side of Heaven means enduring hardship and suffering. I believe that the therapeutic process is one that can bring great healing as we all walk through our own life's valleys.

My ideal client is one who challenges me to work hard to come up with different therapy approaches in order to create necessary change.

They live in various places and have multiple careers. Some might not be employed, but retired or disabled. They come to me because they have a desire for me to provide therapy services and are open to communication; have experienced disappointments previously; are tired of feeling depressed, self-defeated; low self-esteem; anxiety and or trauma.

I fully believe people do well when they can. If you are not doing well in some or many areas of your life, it's because there is something holding you back. You WANT to do well, but for some reason you just can't. That's okay. I can help you identify and navigate these barriers so that you can start doing well again.

I'm so glad you're considering taking this next step. Life is challenging and often interrupted by stress, relationship challenges, and loss. We all crave a fulfilling life that is full of hope, connection, and meaning. Relationships with a spouse, partner, child, parent, siblings, roommates, and even co-workers are central to our emotional well-being. I have advanced training in EFT which focuses on creating connections. These close relationships often create a significant amount of stress, pain, and even loneliness, isolation and trauma. I also have advanced training in CPT trauma therapy to help people heal from trauma.
