Life can be overwhelming. Ongoing problems can leave us frustrated and defeated. Anxiety, depression, trauma, drug and alcohol dependence, relationship conflict, or isolation make it even harder to cope. The joy and spirit of life that we once had seems far gone. We may feel like we've been holding it together for weeks, months, or even years. At our lowest we lose perspective and believe things will never change. We don't want to be this way anymore. Life shouldn't feel this hard.

As your therapist, my goal is to help you navigate your way to a life of relative ease, self-acceptance and confidence. We work together to empower you to shed those thoughts, feelings and habits that hold you back. We've all had them, but they do not have to define or control our lives. Take that first step and give us a call now. You deserve better.

I am available for in-person and online video sessions. If you are struggling, don't struggle alone. Reach out now.
