Over the years, I have worked with numerous clients dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship, and/or family issues that brought them into my office. These issues left clients either looking for someone to help them unpack unresolved feelings, emotions, and thoughts, or suffering in silence. Many times those thoughts, feelings, and emotions needed to be shared with someone who was willing to actively listen and build a healthy and trusting therapeutic relationship with the client to help find relief. If you are looking for someone to help you unpack and get back on track with life, I would love to help you!

***Accepting New Clients*** Sometimes we have challenges with old habits from youth or as an adult that don't seem to go away and it's causing distress and dysfunction.

If you've been on the hamster wheel of life and want to get off, let's talk. Stop going through life and start growing through it.
