Introduction

Whether you are looking for support or guidance through a particularly difficult time, or open to a real change in your life and where you are going, together we can work to achieve dreams and meet your goals. When one does not talk about things those unexpressed feelings and traumas can pile up and explode later. Not fully processing events and emotions often creates negative thought patterns that can impact every area in ones life – your relationships with your spouse, parents, kids, coworkers, and even yourself. Learning how to process them can change how you maneuver in many different ways. My goal as a therapist is to find solutions that work for you on an individual basis, helping you to discover the true potential of your life. Together we explore how to find comfort and resolve in the difficult areas of your life, and the challenges you have to face. Through various techniques we will work to figure out what behaviors and/or thoughts might be holding you back from living your best life, and finding meaning in everyday situations.
