Are you going through a difficult time at work, home or in relationships? Are you feeling over-whelmed, nervous and anxious? I'd like to help you identify the hidden meaning behind these feelings by providing you with a nurturing and supportive environment. We will work together to develop helpful tools to foster improvement in your daily life. I know how hard it is to ask for help. It may feel risky and uncomfortable. I respect that and will meet you where you are throughout the counseling process.
My background includes over 20 years of working with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault as well as helping people to overcome barriers caused by their disabilities by focusing on the whole person; physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, social and environmental and concentrating on each individuals strengths.
There is hope! Take the 1st step and give me a call, send me an email or contact me through my website.
