The background of my business card shows a water droplet causing ripples in a pond. I selected this photo to represent my idea of how we make changes in our lives; sometimes the tiniest action sets off tremendous improvements in how we live our lives. Living more fully, happily, healthily always is part of how I look at my own life; people who can share this attitude usually are those with whom I see the best outcomes from therapy. If you often ask yourself "What might I learn from this situation", you and I likely will be a good team.
I truly enjoy engaging with clients in the messiness of marriage, divorce, trauma, social discomfort, job worries, parenting, losses/grief, difficulty making a big decision. I won't have THE answer to your problem, but I do expect we can work together to identify your strengths and create your personal solutions.
During this time of social distancing I provide hand sanitizer and/or disinfecting wipes for your safety as you enter and exit the office.
