Therapy can be very helpful in addressing problems you may be having in your life. If you struggle with relationship problems, decision making, depression, anxiety, self esteem, impluse control, trauma, substance abuse, grief, addiction or life transitions; I can provide a neutral non-judgmental space to explore and resolve these issues. Many people believe they should be able to solve problems on their own and seek help often waiting until the situation has grown unmanageable. However, early interventions and proactive actions tend to lesson the impact of painful experiences, allowing you to move past problems more easily and quickly.

When you can't connect to people you love, it's painful. It feels like you try to connect, but they get farther away. Life can be hard, and even harder when your past gets in the way of your present and future. Sometimes issues such as being LGBTQ+,culture, religion, or a being a blended family makes relationships harder or more complicated. Sometimes, people need to work through their own "stuff" and sometimes, couples or families need to come together to try and get their relationship back - but an even better one is possible! There is no story with too much shame or guilt to bring to me, I create a safe place for healing!
