We thrive from emotional connections and sometimes those connections become strained by misunderstandings or disconnected through loss and we are left feeling distraught. Learn to develop effective communication skills, embrace grief, identify ways to cope, build trusting relationships with your significant other and those you care about. After a painful relationship sometimes we become unsure of the next step. Want someone to understand painful past experiences, anxiety, depression or indecision and how this gets in the way of a life you want to live? Take a deep breath, take the next step and call. No need to wait any longer.
As a Humanist, relationships are most important aspect of therapy and clients are experts. Gottman/Johnson's approaches foster effective communication and repair connections. Metacognitive/RECBT Therapy to increase cognitive flexibility. Addiction Counseling to educate and support. Trauma therapy to reduce impact of past pain to support you living your life.
Searching for a therapist can be a daunting task, so I want to thank you for considering me in assisting you or your loved one. Reaching out for support can make us feel vulnerable and I respect your willingness to take that step. Now that you have come this far let’s talk about how I can help.

We are fundamentally Humanistic. A holistic approach considers the whole person, rather than one problem or one aspect of life. We view a healthy relationship with self as paramount in our work. We believe in this approach to not only enhance one's ability to tolerate the quirkiness of life, but also to support developing a sense of meaning and purpose; the undergird of life satisfaction.
