Journey, Life, Balance. My philosophy is that therapy is a journey. I am a firm believer that a therapist is not a cure but can be a source of assistance to guide you through your own journey. We may not work together to get directly from point A to point Z as there may be unexpected stops, turns, or scenic views on the way. Sometimes change moves us forward, sometimes it sets us back, and other times it stagnates us in places we have been before. I am here to help with these changes. With the demands of work, family, friends, illness, and world events, we search for balance.

During these times, we all need a helping hand to navigate through our own individual life journey...

There are times in our lives when we feel lost, stuck, unhappy, or powerless. Sometimes we are unsure how we feel, or why we feel this way.

It takes a lot of strength to take this first step in seeking support. We often feel stuck, confused, powerless, stressed, etc and don't know what to do or where/who to turn to.

In our work together, I will help you recognize that all of your feelings are valid, but there are ways in which we can learn to better manage them. We will work together to help you feel the way that you want to feel.
