No one knows how hard it is to be in a relationship until you're in one. You love each other and want to make it work, but lately, your relationship has felt difficult. As you navigate together through different chapters in life, you're noticing more differences. You didn't realize that you have different communication styles, or that your values are more different than you thought. You’re not quite getting your points across, no one feels heard or understood, and your conflicts get in the way of truly seeing one another. You’re tired of having the same conflicts. I get it, it's exhausting.

I don't have an ideal client. I want to met people where they are at. If you've never had therapy before, it’s important to be aware we don’t start talking about the hard stuff. It can take 2-3 sessions for someone to feel comfortable enough to tell another person what they are struggling with. Therapists cannot read minds, but have studied human patterns of thoughts, feelings & actions. No one can truly know the exact consequences a person has experienced in their life. Regardless of the reason why someone is seeking therapy, there is no judgment, no criticism…just acceptance. People can heal & grow in this type of environment.
