The first thing that attracted me to psychology was my own personal struggles with relationships, communication, and finding purpose in my life. These things did not come easily and required a lot of investment to be able to connect with the world and live a productive life. I later discovered a lot of success and fulfillment when helping others with their own struggles. Helping free people and reach towards their potential is a life calling.

I work best with people who are willing and able to take a deep, honest look at themselves and their lives. Growth begins with acceptance and awareness. We will work to make things better from there.

Everyone needs some help and support in their lives. I can remember the times when the encouragement and insight of others have helped a lot in my life. I want to help provide this to everyone I am able to. If you are unhappy with your life, let me or someone like me walk with you and help you with the tools and knowledge to make things better.

We will start with an assessment of your needs, then we will build a plan to address them. Trust and understanding are vital to successful therapy. No plan works without a realistic starting point. We will then work to identify where you want to improve and address the barriers to making this happen.

Over my lifetime I have experienced my share of failure and success. I know what it is like to be left out, bullied, misunderstood and abandoned. Other times I have found support, appreciation, and fulfillment, but it has rarely come easily. We all have our unique challenges, opportunities, and experiences. I am confident, however, that there is a way to make small improvements and achieve small victories if we are willing to challenge ourselves and try new things. I have needed help from others to do this in the past and am here to help you in the present to do the same.

I tailor my therapy to meet my client's needs by listening, observing, and encouraging my clients to give honest feedback on what is working and what is not. Recovery is a team effort. We will explore all the tools I can offer to find a good fit.
