Mental, emotional, and relational difficulties may be new to us or all-too-familiar, but the pain does not have to rival that which besieges us. Truth is, we need to learn to manage ourselves in healthful ways despite the struggles. Optimal mental, emotional, and relational health help us develop into better versions of ourselves. We can improve depression, anxiety, decision-making, and adjusting to change by identifying resources for growth. Embracing authenticity, honesty, self-awareness, personal strengths, and even vulnerability may increase confidence, health, satisfaction, and fulfillment. This is the stuff of therapy.
Decades of experiences, growth, mistakes, learning, and observation, along with a natural interest in helping others maximize their potential, inspire me to help clients strive to reach their personal & relational goals. I believe my life experiences, passion for people & their well-being, and intense interest in improving relationships enrich my work.
Life affords you many opportunities for difficulty, but you are not alone. I am interested and here to help you improve your quality of life via either individual therapy or relational therapy with a spouse, partner, child, parent, or sibling. As we build rapport and collaborate, I will also endeavor to challenge and support as you make desired changes.
