It takes a lot of courage to acknowledge that you are wanting or needing help and then acting on that decision. It's a decision people usually make when they feel like they are in crisis or stuck in a relationship, job, or some other situation. Making this decision is a step towards change, because you are acknowledging that you want or need something in your life to go in a different direction. I provide individual and couple therapy with a focus on building healthy connections with ourselves and others. I also emphasize healthy relationships between our mind, body and spirit to develop and strengthen our authentic selves.

Burnout: It has been said “it’s lonely at the top”. You have reached the top in your career, but your personal life is in shambles or you’re experiencing “burnout”. The Therapist problem solves and suggests interventions for their clients but, who can the Therapist talk to? You’re a Veteran struggling to come back to the “Real World”, and every day and night are a battle with PTSD symptoms. You may be a parent that is at the “end of your rope” with a child with Autism, ADHD, or significant depression and is exhibiting negative behaviors in the home and at school. You may need help in processing loss, divorce, and retirement.
