The approach we take to implement those changes will be guided by your perso...

I frequently work with adults ages 17+ to help them gain understanding of how our past can influence our present behaviors and emotional responses and assist those struggling with addiction to regain control over their own lives. I enjoy working with couples to develop positive, healthy relationships and interactions with each other through po...

Many of the clients we work with are at a point in their lives where they want to shed old patterns of thinking, believing, and behaving. We understand that family of origin, society, and many other factors often condition us to believe we can’t be or should be someone else—whatever that may or may not look like. Are you ready to release the messages or stories from your past that feel impossible to shake? Are you longing to live freely in the here and now? If so, we may be a good fit to help...

Therapy is a way to r...
