Everyone experiences ups and downs in their life. When those experiences begin to feel like a never ending cycle of fear, conflict, and pain, we stall out. I help couples, families, and individuals who experience relational problems, intercultural difficulties, depression, anger, anxiety, and many other issues. The clients I see are often seeking ways to improve their relationships and change the patterns that continue to cause them grief and pain. Ultimately, I guide clients to live an authentic and healthier life with others and with themselves.

The vast majority people who seek therapy have, through no fault of their own, suffered loss and trauma which has caused painful consequences for their lives. The best way to heal from those losses is to first have them accurately identified and then to be gradually helped to express one's thoughts and feelings about them to a supportive listener. With such support one's experiences are validated as real and one begins to recognize one's strength and courage under the most challenging of circumstances. The opportunity to speak the truth about the painful facts of one's life to a supportive therapist is what heals.
