You thought your relationship would bring you joy and happiness. Instead, you feel desperate and hopeless. The person you expected to bring you the most love and joy has hurt you. I’m so sorry, but there is hope! Let me say it again: There is hope. Hope for your troubled relationship to be transformed into what you've always dreamed it would be: a happy and fulfilling marriage. The warmth of family harmony. The unshakable bond between a parent and a child. It’s still possible to have these. It may feel and seem impossible, but through therapy you can work towards the having the relationships you've always dreamed about.

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.

Navigating the ups and downs of life can be challenging. It helps to have genuine and nonjudgmental support along the way. If you encounter a fork in the road of life and feel unsure of which path to take, counseling may help you explore personal growth and positive change. In our busy lives, it can be difficult to slow down and truly connect with ourselves, our values, and our understanding of the world around us. I believe therapeutic change occurs when we let go of perceived pressures and expectations so that we may seek a better understanding of our authentic selves.

We all have an internal pressure cooker that holds strong feelings and repressed emotions. This is especially true with today’s adolescents and teenagers. When anxiety, fear, depression, and outside stressors fill their barometer up, they reach a boiling point of eruption that plays out in extreme anger, defiance, substance abuse, addictions to social media and screens, overeating, and other destructive behaviors.
