2026 is here and it is a new year. Life can be stressful and overwhelming to ​say the least, especially around the holidays and new year. Do you feel broken, stuck, or trapped right now? Have you lost hope of ever having the life you dreamed of before the path you were on was changed. Ever feel like every time you take a step forward, life knocks you down a flight of stairs? Now not only do you have to get back up, but the next step forward is uphill. You may be experiencing difficulty adjusting to the changes in your life. This can be exhausting and very tempting to give up on those dreams you had.
Many times the circumstances in your life that have trapped you are molehills compared to the obstacle you can become to your own success. It didn't happen willingly, but you have begun to tell yourself you can't do it. Let's change that trajectory together. We will identify the problematic thought patterns, challenge them, and replace them.
Together, we will reduce the anxiety, increase your confidence, process losses, and move forward. I provide counseling online in the afternoon/evening which allows me to be flexible with scheduling needs. Let's get to work on finding your balance. You can contact me by phone or email and I will respond within one business day. Let's break free and soar!

Clients I often see are individuals on the cusp of making change in their lives by choice or by circumstance. I also help individuals or families learning how to adjust to caretaking of an aging parent, an addicted individual, or even special needs children.

I meet my clients where they are at. While I mostly use CBT, sometimes I switch it up if the client is responding to something else. The primary goal is to help you change your behavior making better decisions by processing and addressing your feelings and learning how to change problematic thought patterns.
