People come to therapy because they want to feel better. It might be relationship problems or anxiety/depression, but whatever the reason, life has become uncomfortable or painful. Most people want more understanding of themselves and their situation. That being said, change is what we all seek in therapy. Making your life work better is the goal. I focus on altering self-defeating ways, gaining perspective, and increasing insight that leads to change. The result is an improved quality of life.

Marriage and relationships can be so hard! You signed up for happily ever after, but happiness is missing in your relationship. Maybe you are stuck in an endless cycle of arguing, distance, or pain. Maybe your relationship lacks true intimacy and connection. Through couples counseling you & your partner can stop the negative cycle that is devastating your relationship. You and your partner can learn to understand your own responses to emotions, how you handle them, and how you can share them. You and your partner can learn what you both are really trying to communicate, and experience a secure bond and close connection.
