I offer counseling sessions tailored to individuals and couples grappling with matters such as weight management and obesity, issues of trust, the relentless pursuit of perfection, emotional disconnection, generalized anxiety and depression.

Learning how to give up old behaviors in favor of new, more healthy actions, goes hand in hand with operating differently.

Having someone understand you and these emotions will enhance and smooth out the process of evolving into the person you want to be.
