What brought you here today? Likely it is in search of relief or a better understanding of where you find yourself at this particular moment in your own story; or maybe to gain better perspective on your past. The two are not mutually exclusive. Far from it.
People seek therapy for a variety of reasons: anxiety, depression, relationship complications, sexuality issues; or it may be a combination of issues. For over 20 years, I have worked with individuals and couples who have presented for a wide range of issues and challenges. My approach as a therapist is empathic but direct, compassionate but sincere.
And now comes the next step: reaching out. I am happy to meet with you (virtually) to see how I might help.
