Most of the individuals who seek the help of a therapist have tried everything they know how to do, but it just isn't working for them. It is the task of an effective therapist to listen to your concerns and develop ways to assist you in learning better ways of dealing with problems that have bothered you currently and in the past. We can do that.

I help people with change. Maybe you lost your job, a loved one, a vision of the future, and you need to adapt. Or perhaps you want things to change. You want to start or stop doing something. Maybe you aren't sure what needs to change, but you know you feel stuck. We'll figure it out together and develop a plan to get you to something different.

I believe the most important thing I can offer as a counselor is this: genuine care. A mentor once told me, “Nobody cares what you know until they know that you care,” and that has stayed with me throughout my career. It shapes how I show up in every session, with authenticity, presence, and respect for your experience.
