If you are reading this, take heart, as you've already demonstrated your courage. Many people, if not most, never seek the help they need, professionally or personally. As a therapist, my philosophy is that every person is unique in their own way, and this requires a unique solution to the challenges you face. People are incredibly complex, and many times this is why cookie cutter interventions often fall flat, because the client is not fully understood before interventions are prescribed.

Relationships are challenging. If you're struggling as a partner or parent, please know you are not alone. At Sage River Psychotherapy, we believe that we are all vulnerable to finding ourselves "stuck" in patterns that don't serve us well.

If you're caught in cycles of conflict, anger, depression, anxiety, it's good that you're here. We'd love to help.

My philosophy is that therapy is a team approach, and I view myself as a fellow traveler walking alongside my clients on their therapeutic journey.

In addition, I have a deep passion for helping individuals explore life transitions at any stage, as well as those suffering from depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, and relationship issues.

It can be difficult and uncomfortable to talk to someone we barely know about our thoughts and feelings, especially if they are upsetting to us.
