I’ve always believed the human heart is both deeper than we realize and tougher than we give it credit for. As a counselor, I get to sit with people who are ready to face whatever life’s throwing at them—anxiety that won’t let up, depression that dims the days, relationships that feel like a puzzle, or big changes that turn everything upside down. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just unsure how to reach the parts of yourself that need a little care, I’d love to help. It’s not about grand fixes—it’s about finding your footing, together.

Your life feels like it is spinning out of control and you are finding yourself drinking more to cope. It started out as a few beers at the end of the day but now you can hardly recognize who you have become. Your friends and family are worried about you and they don't even know how bad it really has gotten. You feel like you are living a double life and are exhausted from keeping it up.
