Going through life's journey is like riding a roller coaster full of ups, downs, twists, and turns. On a roller coaster, you often have someone sitting next to you regardless of if you know the person. Think of life the same way. It is challenging and shouldn't be done alone.

If you're like many individuals I've worked with, you possess unique gifts that the world desperately needs. Yet, hidden beneath the surface, away from others' eyes, the shadows of depression and anxiety lurk, accompanied by a critical inner voice that scrutinizes your every action. This voice has become an unwelcome companion, casting doubt on your achievements and diminishing your joy. For a while, you've managed to stay ahead. Work harder. Play harder. Then collapse into your downtime, only to restart the cycle.

Do you long for a deeper sense of peace, wholeness and connection to life? Do repetitive patterns prevent you from having a fulfilling life and satisfying relationships? Any issue or symptom, such as addiction, depression or anxiety, or an underlying sense of disconnection, fear or doubt, is a message from your unconscious that something inside Is out of alignment. We will collaboratively explore your experiences and their meaning to help you connect to yourself and life in a fuller and more satisfying way.

Most clients I support deal with these challenging narratives and begin to heal once they find a warm, welcoming, collaborative environment to learn, open up and connect to their inner selves.

I can best help couples who want to create a strong relationship foundation, bridge differing desires, revitalize sexless (or low-sex) marriages or relationships, recover from an affair, or explore alternative relationships, such as poly or open relationships.
