Therapy is for everyone. Nothing is "wrong" with you for going to therapy. You don't have to wait for things to get worse before you seek help. You have been waiting for your problems to get "big enough" so you can justify going to therapy. Until now, you've been dealing with them on your own or by confiding in friends. Maybe what once helped you cope with starting a new school year or job transition is no longer enough. Perhaps your problems have become so overwhelming that it seems like there's no end in sight. You want something to change.

Seeking help can often be scary and intimidating. It is important to find a therapist that is caring and compassionate. In my practice, I seek to provide a safe and comfortable space for individuals to share the most vulnerable parts of their lives. Life is full of difficult situations we are not always prepared to handle. Therapy can be a way to get the support and tools we need to better cope with things life throws our way.

The mission of Starfish Family Counseling, PLLC, is best described through a story. The Starfish Story tells of a child walking along a beach after a terrible storm which washed up thousands of starfish onto the beach. The child is throwing starfish back into the water, when someone admonishes the child that they cannot save them all, cannot really make a difference. The child responds by picking up another starfish and saying "it makes a difference to this one." Together we will explore your goals, strengths and most importantly that you, your child, your relationships deserve healing. You matter.
