My Approach to Helping

Free yourself...I help facilitate the changes you seek so you may live more comfortably. Life, loss, trauma, dysfunctional relationships, addiction, creative blocks and much more can prevent anyone from moving on. I work with clients to help them identify and link issues of their past to behaviors and patterns in the present so that they may move forward in their lives with new vitality. This starts with the establishment of a sound trusting therapeutic relationship. From this foundation, I will educate and support you in uncovering and recovering your own resources and strengths.
Telling your story and being honest with yourself can help you make meaning out of where you've been and inform where you are going and how you get there. Growth and change are possible as you begin to shed old habits and ideas that prevent you from living more fully.
My hope is that our work together helps you to make healthier and authentic decisions, and to pursue fulfilling relationships. Therapy is a process. Be patient with yourself. It takes time and a commitment. Finding the right therapist is important. I offer a free phone consultation to help you in your search.
