Are you or a loved one struggling with stress, anxiety or depression? Are your coping skills helping or hurting you? In life, we all experience times when we struggle whether it be with guilt, shame, grief/loss, relationship issues or adjustment to change. With a little help, we can move through this and get to a brighter life. In the 20 years I have been a therapist I have helped many people with these issues. One of my favorite quotes is “If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got. If you want something different, do something different.” Counseling is the process that can help with this.
I have experience working with troubled youth, survivors of domestic abuse and those with addiction issues. My counseling philosophy is to come alongside you and meet you where you are in your life’s journey. I provide a supportive and accepting atmosphere, so you'll feel comfortable opening up about your issues without fear of judgement.
If you are ready for help I would love to walk beside you in your journey. Call or email to set up a free 30 min. phone consultation to discuss what you would like to work on and determine if we would make a good team. Together we will devise a plan to address what is bothering you and break it down into manageable steps. I look forward to hearing from you.
