I am still providing therapy during the COVID-19 outbreak. I am available through telehealth, video conferencing, and telephone sessions.
About
Albert Einstein once said, “The measure of intelligence is the ability to change.” If you are seeking to make lasting change then I encourage you to find a trained professional. Family can give advice, friends can listen, but a licensed therapist can give you help to overcome your situation. It may sound like a cliché but Michael Jackson was right, “You are not alone” and you are not. Let us walk with you to help with your relationship roller coaster, family fall-out, as you go through grief, turmoil with your teen or child, or rebuild from a bad break-up.
