Through improving our ability to communicate, we strengthen the bonds in our relationships. First, we must engage in honest, self-reflection by examining and distinguishing our needs and wants. Once we have gained greater self-awareness, we can then focus on communicating with our partners, family members, and co-workers through respectful talking, listening, and reflection. It is through improved understanding that we create fertile ground for growth and development.

I am experienced in helping clients recapture the person they previously were. Many clients say to me, "I just want to go back to being the person I used to be", and that's exactly what we focus on. Clients also often say to me, "I just don't know what to do or what I want", and we work together until we figure out how to alleviate their confusion. We achieve this in various ways, most often through exploration of the presenting issues, examination of past relationships and significant experiences as well as decision-making and behavioral patterns.

I work with adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, and difficulty figuring out how to move from being stuck to moving along in life. We will collaborately work on ways to figure out where you are stuck and what got you there.
