Individual Therapy

I get that it's tough to reach out! If you are struggling with feelings of depression, anxiety, grief and loss, therapy can help. In therapy we can identify thoughts and behaviors that keep you from being your best self. With guidance and support, you can learn coping skills that enable you to move beyond habits and patterns that no longer serve you and find joy again! Acknowledging the past and focusing on the future can help you live the life you really want. The most effective therapy helps you to identify your unique personal road map to where you want to be.

Couples and Family Therapy

Even when they deeply love each other, many couples find that something is missing from their relationship. It could be a lack of communication or intimacy. Partners can hurt and disappoint us, even abuse us. It is important to examine what went wrong and how you can get back on track. Being a good parent means being vulnerable at times and admitting you don't have all the answers! How to set healthy boundaries and improve family communication are just two of the things family therapy can focus on. You can expect our sessions to be filled with wisdom, experience, humor and compassion. Most couples and families are amazed at how helpful therapy can be to change long standing negative patterns and concerns. Start loving each other as a team again.
