It can be hard to know where to start. Sometimes dealing with life can be too painful and it is easy to feel that you are all on your own. This is especially true when it comes to relationship issues or with emotional pain. How many times do you keep trying the same things and end up with the same results? You don't need to go it alone. I am a therapist who loves working with individuals, couples, and families in helping them create lives they love and extraordinary relationships. Please call or email me and we can discuss your unique situation!

Stressful events can leave us feeling tired, anxious and/or hopeless. Individuals may experience sleepless nights, emotional changes, difficulty concentrating, or avoiding engaging in activities. Some of us need a supportive person to listen to our story, providing empathy and a listening ear. Others need someone to challenge them to move past their current placement in life or encourage them to make it through another day.
