Part of being human is experiencing a range of emotions... and they're not all rainbows and sparkles. Going through difficult times is a part of life. For most of us, we need or at least benefit from gaining support through those times. And, while it may be helpful to talk to a trusted friend or family member, therapy offers something different. Therapy gives you a totally safe place where you can explore your thoughts and behaviors with a trained professional who is non-biased. It is also a place where you can learn strategies to help you better deal with your challenges, set goals, and gain new perspectives. How great is that!?

The counseling and coaching relationship is special in that it allows me to walk beside and support clients in a safe environment where we are able to explore together what you are struggling with and move towards healing and growth.

After that, we'll begin the journey of exploring areas you'd like to work on.
