Sometimes life can simply be too much for us to cope with alone. The loss of a loved one, the breakup of a relationship, or other traumatic events can leave us feeling hopeless or lost. Counseling helps by providing us with the time and space to think about our problems, and the tools we need to work through them.

I believe that change best occurs in the context of an open, trusting relationship. Therapy is a collaborative relationship in which we work together to address the issues that you are struggling with. Together, we will identify your feelings, thoughts, and dynamics that are impacting your life. We will work together to meet your goals in pursuit of a purposeful and rewarding life.
