***ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS*** ***I am also credentialed to do video therapy*** For more info check out my website and media interviews. I do not believe there is an ideal client. In my years of work I have encountered many people with many reasons for why they are the way they are. What I know is that if you are open to the process, we can figure it out. Most of my clients are nervous when they come for the first time, and rightfully so. It's anxiety provoking to talk to a stranger about your "stuff." Despite that hesitancy they overwhelmingly experience relief and begin to see a path forward after we start our work together.

Life, relationships, and making ends meet can be difficult even under the best of circumstances and we may find ourselves in situations in where our determination, knowledge and experience are not enough to create change. - this is a normal part of life. When we find ourselves in these types of situations, counseling can help to provide a safe and confidential environment where individuals and families can examine their perspective and find a solution to their problems.
