After around 10 ten years of therapy, I've come to realize that there are a few reasons client choose therapy. Some people need someone to talk to-some who understands them and others in their life as well as someone confidential.

Thankfully I have found that my clients benefit tremendously in both areas and even enjoy talking with me.

We all want to feel that we are in control, alive and balanced. The reality is we can get stuck, confused, and in need of help. Feelings of frustration, hurt, doubt, worry, sadness, self-blame, or loneliness can set in. In other words, we become “unhappy.” We want to feel that we have a choice. A choice that will make things better whether it is for ourselves, our relationship, or our children.
