Life can be messy! During these times, it can be difficult to balance all of the challenges and expectations that we face on a day-to-day basis. Therapy can be a great space to sort out the messy stuff, explore coping strategies for complex emotions and process difficult events or transitions. Most importantly, therapy is a great space to get to know yourself on a deeper level and create more opportunities for acceptance, change and growth. I aim to create a relaxed, safe and judgment free space for my clients to express themselves and foster a trusting therapeutic relationship.

Are you tired of dating the wrong person or being in a ‘roommate’ status romance or marriage? Relationships are not easy and being romantically involved with the right person takes work; self-work. Whether single or in a relationship, we can all benefit from discovering tools to better communicate our needs, build confidence, find our purpose in life, have a positive self-image and so on. As a therapist specializing in relationship issues, I focus on self-empowerment and self-awareness because settling for less than you deserve is not an option.

Feeling sad, anxious, overwhelmed, angry, and confused means we’re human; these are emotions we all experience occasionally. But if "occasionally", has become "frequently", it's time to get relief. Finding a therapist who will really hear you, may be your first step to addressing relationship issues, depression, anxiety, over-eating, even parenting problems. My style is honest, supportive and direct. A therapist's job is not to give advice, but to create a safe, non-judgemental place where you can figure out what you need to do. When change seems impossible, therapy provides hope for something different.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
