A few of the many issues I work with are anxiety, depression, self-esteem and relationship issues.
I work with a variety of treatment needs, lifestyles, and populations, but I'd have to say that my ideal client is someone who is ready to make positive changes in their life. I also value clients who are open to feedback and are honest with me and themselves. Whatever their needs and goals are, if it’s important to them, then it’s important to the therapy process.

Waitlist for new clients
When we improve our relationship with ourselves, ultimately that flows over into improving our relationships with others, and overall has the ability to enhance our quality of life.
I am very passionate about helping people better their relationships and their emotional health. Seeking out support from someone in the helping field is actually a very courageous act. Additionally, reaching out shouldn't be limited to problematic times, but also in times we may wish to grow as an individual or increase our level of concentration and productivity. Whether you are looking to explore how limiting beliefs and past traumas may be holding you back, or seeking to grow emotionally, counseling could be a great option for you.

If it weren't for the kids we would be done. Sometimes I think about having an affair, I never thought that would be me. I love my partner but I just don't feel like I am In Love with him/her.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
