I also help people who struggle with sexual compulsivity and love addiction learn to manage their feelings without resorting to destructive behaviors or staying attached to unhealthy people.

Anyone can give advice.  In my experience, people come to therapy looking for something they cannot get anywhere else. Usually they are struggling with anxiety, depression, or some other issue that they have not been able to solve on their own. How does therapy help? My philosophy is that we heal through relationship—not in isolation. So rather than providing a list of pre-scripted tools, I strive to develop genuine connections with my clients. But beyond simply looking for relief from troubling symptoms, my goal is to help you create the life you want to live.

At night you lie in bed wondering "Can this marriage really be saved?" You are so tired of feeling lonely, disconnected, and ignored. This is not AT ALL where you thought you'd ever end up. No more interesting conversations, no date nights, no fun, no sex. The thought "I can't wait to get home" turned into "Do I have to go home?" What happened? Will you ever reconnect with your spouse? Will you ever feel cherished and loved again? You've tried to fix it, but it didn't work. You got back defensiveness and criticism instead. You need HELP!. You can't do it alone. Should you stay or should you go?
