Society used to look at mental health issues as something to be ashamed of, but we don't have to any more. Mental health, like physical health, is something that absolutely everyone must work at to feel good. It's rewarding work, but it isn't always easy. Traumatic events or even just daily struggles can sometimes lead to addictions, poor relationships with others, or strong feelings of disconnection and worthlessness. The resources we need to stay balanced, to grow, and to feel whole are within each of us, but sometimes we have trouble finding them on our own.

Life is NOT easy! We did not sign up for many of the difficulties we face most days. More often than not, we simply feel STUCK. We find ourselves in personal and relational situations where we are completely stumped as to how to make effective changes. Other times we DO know what is best, but an inner reaction takes over–and we can't seem to do that right thing! Hello! So frustrating! Maybe your thoughts or feelings seem like they are out of your control, and you just need help to sort them out and find a way forward. I can help you with any of these challenges.

Many things in our lives are on a continuum, including the intensity of the problem, resilience, resourcefulness, and healing. Sometimes we need more guidance and help than other times, and sometimes we feel that we can manage on our own. The striving to heal or cope at our best may be subtle or more apparent in our lives, which helps to realize that change is needed, contemplate it, and act. My approach to psychotherapy is integrative, eclectic, and trauma-informed.
