Has opening up about things in your life you are struggling with been difficult? Have drugs or alcohol become more and more of a problem than a solution? Perhaps you have felt there is no way out, or maybe you’ve done the hard work to make it this far but are looking for that final push to really begin living your life to its fullest again.

Although I obtained a significant amount of knowledge as a therapeutic provider and underwent professional training, I, as the therapist, view myself as their creative partner in becoming the “best” version of themselves. Not only do I believe clients are the experts on themselves, but I also believe that clients are the heroes of their own stories. During the course of the journey, the hero often has to integrate parts of themselves and the world that surrounds them to become an agent of better change.

Most people find it quite difficult to begin seeing a therapist regardless of the reason. It does not seem natural to expose one's innermost struggles to a complete stranger. After working in the field for 27 years I have found that the initial discomfort felt by many dissipates rather quickly when they encounter a warm, supportive person who offers genuine hope.
