Finding the right counselor can be challenging but taking the first steps towards securing your sense of personal wellness can be deeply impactful and important. I’ve discovered that many people are looking to work on aspects of themselves but struggle with knowing where to start and how to sustain meaningful change. Sometimes it is a matter of feeling heard and other times we seek direct guidance and feedback. We often need to develop the language to better understand what is happening and to place things in a useful context.
I specialize in issues that are important to diverse populations. I specialize in substance use, Depression and Anxiety, Attachment, Trauma (including PTSD), Grief and Loss, relationship instability and family dynamics, career guidance and human sexuality (including LGBTQ+ affirming).
Getting started is the hard part but it only get's better. I am looking forward to helping you take those initial steps and establish long term patterns of stability, growth and ongoing wellness.
