By processing your thoughts, feelings and behaviors without judgment and with unconditional positive regard, I will help you discover the strength that you have to accomplish any goal.

Therapy has a way of helping you grow from within. Therapist do not have the answers, just a way of helping you toward your own solutions. Sometimes just breathing can seem difficult & we begin to feel overwhelmed with daily life stressors. When we share these challenges, we open ourselves for change, growth, & hopefulness. Children in therapy can learn emotional awareness & coping to guide them to adulthood. Even if you have previous unfavorable experiences with therapy or you are apprehensive about the thought of entering therapy, I encourage you to contact us for more information on the benefits of therapeutic relationships.

Too often individuals feel hopeless and discouraged with the direction of their life. They may have lost interest in things they use to enjoy. Some individuals may be struggling with overcoming past traumas and hurts, and these events from their past are preventing them from being their authentic self. Individuals seek counseling for a variety of reasons, and all are valid concerns. However, I am not here to judge you, but instead I am here to walk with you while we explore your life's journey and determine ways to help you find your true self.
