Depression, anxiety and problems in relationships often cause deep anguish and pain - just getting by each day is tough. We often struggle alone believing things will never get better. Friends and family urge us to just get over it, but sometimes that makes it feel worse. You need someone to talk to. In the safety and privacy of our offices, you will have your therapist's unwavering attention, devoted to helping you untangle the mess that exists in your life. Together, we will help you change what you thought was unchangeable but also accept what you thought was unacceptable.

I like for you to feel secure and comfortable when you come into my office; and empowered and satisfied when you leave.

Same bed, worlds apart. Maybe you’re in even sleeping in separate rooms at this point. How can you spend your days side by side with a person and still feel so alone? You used to be allies, you felt understood. Easily understood. Now you’re in a place where you’ve got to stand on your head with your explanations and plenty of times, you wish you’d just saved your breath. Maybe you have no idea when things shifted, maybe you know precisely. One thing you know for certain, is that you want out. Not necessarily out of your marriage, but out of the sad, frustrating place that you’re stuck in. But without a path, it’s just not happening.

Your thoughts. Why does it feel like they work against you. It's like swimming upstream. One small decision can keep you wrapped up for days, thinking and re-thinking your options. Doubting yourself over and over. It would make sense to you if it were a big decision, but it’s the little things that trip you up. If you could just stop, you absolutely would. Your anxiety always seems to get the best of you. You wonder, why can’t you be like everyone else and just let things go? No one else seems as tangled in their thoughts as you feel like you are. You know this isn’t your best life, but without a different path, you’re stuck.
