Clients who seek my services are interested in making measurable quality of life changes. Emotional distress and conflict can create significant obstacles to psychological and overall well-being. Whether a child, an adolescent, adult, or family, conflict can lead to behavioral problems, abuse of alcohol or other substances, difficulty establishing and sustaining close relationships, and a loss of vision or purpose for one's life. Psychotherapy becomes the process from which a person uncovers conflict, explores barriers, identifies options, and pursues paths of change.

Anxiety, worry and self-doubt are perhaps the most common and widespread challenges faced by children today. From every area of their lives, children face daunting pressures and demands. For those already anxious or vulnerable, these pressures maybe be overwhelming. Already primed for frustration or failure, such children may find navigating key developmental transitions - from childhood to grade school, for example, or from pre-adolescence to the teen years - difficult if not impossible. Parents may have tried other interventions or therapies; but often with little or no success. What's a concerned parent to do?

Is it just me or has the world felt extremely overwhelming in recent years? It can be hard to just feel stable, let alone attempt to feel happy. There can be so much pressure, both from the world and from ourselves. You need a sense of grounding; an internal anchor that holds you strong while the waves of life thrash. You need to understand yourself, why you make the choices you do, why negative thoughts and default patterns hold you back from the life you want, and how to control the emotions and fears that overwhelm you. Mostly, you deserve to love, respect and accept yourself, just as you are.
