Taking a step to admit that things are not right in your life is difficult, but there is no shame in that. At some point in our lives, we all need help. Some people think that asking for help implies weakness, or a lack of strength. Asking for help when vulnerable, however, is wise. Instead of bearing pain and emotional distress alone, you can find strength in a psychotherapeutic relationship. Let me help you find your source of strength through psychotherapy. I work with patients wanting to examine and understand their emotional pain.
I'm lucky to believe in what I do. I've seen people feel less anxious and more empowered, watched patients overcome fear and traumatized individuals trust again. I've helped couples stay together, children grow strong, adolescents adjust and autistic people feel more understood. Through the relationship, healing happens.
I specialize in helping people feel safe to explore who they are. As the ancient philosopher Socrates said "An unexamined life is not worth living." When we work together to examine your life, we can create empowerment and change.
