"Hope begins in the dark; the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work; You don’t give up." — Anne Lamott

Overcome Your Struggles

You may be seeking help because of an upsetting event in your life, or you may have struggled with a particular issue for a long time. I'm warm and collaborative and together we can better understand the true reasons and meanings behind your struggles. When these are fully understood, you'll move through life with more calm, confidence, and clarity.

Life can be very difficult at times, and a caring therapist who listens and understands can be very important in helping with the changes that life sometimes requires of us. I'll help you feel more grounded and empowered so that you can have more positive life experiences and more satisfying relationships.

I welcome people of all backgrounds and orientations. Therapy isn't always easy, but it can change your life.
