Life can be hard. Still it is my desire that you flourish in your life, and sometimes counseling is a wise path to pursue to help heal a broken heart and address challenges. I tailor counseling to your goals and needs. Counseling has many facets: healing from past/present pain, improving relationships, exploring one's self, taking responsibility, changing as needed, growing, finding solutions and developing hope for the future plus tools to succeed there. I believe therapy takes much courage. I continue to be humbled as each person shares their life story with me, and I consider it an honor and seek to value what is entrusted to me.

You are constantly feeling emotional triggers and are not sure why. Despite being successful in your life, these triggers have become familiar, as this has been your experience for as long as you can remember. You have trouble sleeping, your relationships are suffering, and you don't know who you are. You awaken most days with dread. The anxiety hits you immediately. You wonder how you are going to get through your day feeling so overwhelmed. The emotional distress is taking a toll on your health and well-being. You feel disconnected from yourself and others. You know it's time to do something different.

You may feel stuck repeating the same old patterns that ultimately sabotage you from experiencing joy in your life. You are not alone and there IS HOPE.
