All of us face times in our lives when pain and distress seem more than we can bear. It is especially during times like these when we want someone who can understand us, doesn't judge us, and won't try to make us into someone we're not. Perhaps you're lucky enough to have friends that fit this description. A good therapist brings something even more valuable: The training and ability to recognize your inner strengths and show you how to use them to alleviate your suffering. This is my guiding philosophy and approach to treatment.
