Brene Brown wrote in her book, Rising Strong: The Reckoning. The Rumble. The Revolution, "We don’t have to do all of it alone.

You deserve to make a big deal out of things that are a big deal to you. You deserve healthy love and respect, from others and from yourself.

I enjoy helping clients to find the insight into their own issues. I like to help provide guidance for clients to make effective changes outside of the office. I use an eclectic mix of therapies, along with humor, to help build rapport and provide that insight that promotes change. At times looking into the past can provide answers to the issues a client is having today.
