You are looking for a therapist or counselor that can actually help you make the changes you desire. You want someone who can truly listen and understands the emotions and symptoms you are experiencing, but you also need someone to dive in with you to navigate a way through them. Whether you are looking for help in breaking free from your past, gaining skills to defeat unhelpful thoughts, a lifeline out of the pit of depression, or a stabilizing hand to help you with dysregulation, I can help.

My program is most successful with people who recognize they need change, are ready to change, and believe it’s possible. They can identify at least one problem or unreached goal and are committed to learning something new.

We're not going to talk a lot about the whys, we'll address the what - what is wrong and what you want instead. If you're ready to release the trauma and embrace joy, forgiveness, and freedom, you're a great fit!

The simple truth is that being human presents us with some significant challenges, some of which are unavoidable. No one is going to escape sickness, aging, and death.

My aim here is to work together as a team, to help you be the sort of person you want to be and build the kind of life you want to live. Part of this approach involves learning skills to handle stressful thoughts and feelings more effectively so they have less impact and influence over you.
