If you are reading this, it is your first step toward making permanent, positive life changes. Perhaps you are questioning some of your life choices; wondering how you got where you are at this point in your life; or someone you love is struggling and you want to help. Maybe past attempts have not worked out. Professional counseling can enhance almost any life situation and circumstance by first helping you to get clear on what you want or need to change, and what you are willing and able to do to make these changes. The first step is the hardest.

Starting is often the hardest part. We all want to have someone listen to us; someone to understand where we have been, where we want to go & help us find a way to get there. No judgement here, just honest conversation to help you help yourself. Sometimes life takes alternate paths & we could all use a little GPS from time to time. I'm a firm believer that people need people and that we are all in this life together. Let's explore ways to get you to, or back to, the version of yourself that you want to be. Something or someone has driven you to Psychology Today. You don't have to continue feeling this way.

As a licensed clinician, I believe in two fundamental truths. The first being "I believe in the possibility of change" and the second "I create a safe space to make that change". These beliefs help people heal and recover. As we develop in life, we all face transition and change. Some of these waters are difficult to navigate through and few of us can do so without a guide or support. I will support you so that you can see a clear path to your desired goals. "The purposes of a person's heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out. " Prov 20:5

Life can get complicated. You or a loved one may feel out of balance and in need of additional support.

Finding a therapist who is a good match for your needs and can help is a crucial step. My experience allows me to support clients with a wide range of presenting issues.
