You have a right to a better life, to live with less distress; to have a life with possibility, potential, and vitality. I have worked with people like you who have found that within the warm, accepting, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment of our therapeutic relationship that change becomes possible.

Beyond relief is the potential for a life enriched with hope, meaning and contentment that I desire to assist you in discovering.

Life can be incredibly painful. We can find ourselves feeling stuck, confused, lonely, anxious, despairing, or lost. We want to make sense of our past & present circumstances, map out a path forward, all in a way that feels true to our values and honors the pain we experience. My clients often struggle with issues like depression & anxiety, grief & loss, trauma & abuse, identity & meaning formation, sexuality & pornography, spiritual distress & relationship strife. Whether highly motivated or exhausted and on the verge of giving up, I am honored to meet each client where they are and walk with them step by step toward change.

Life doesn't always go how we think it should. We face difficulties - maybe with a spouse or co-worker, maybe within ourselves.

Life can be stressful. The demands we, as well as others, place upon us can steal our peace and happiness and leave us feeling overwhelmed. Often, we struggle to achieve some sense of balance while simultaneously feeling confused and discouraged.

Therapy offers a time away from daily life and provides a comfortable place to reflect and regain a healthy perspective for living life fully.
