Life's detours- those moments, relationships, illnesses, or situations that are different somehow than you expected- can bring you to a place of overwhelm, frustration, worry, hopelessness, or despair. When what you have done in the past to cope is no longer helping, it may be time to reach out. What would it look like for you to be restored, renewed, and refreshed- to have vitality in life again- amidst these challenges?

We are worth more than our circumstances, difficult situations, missteps, or the uncontrollable events of our lives. As we process these emotions, we need support to recognize that digging out can be difficult and sometimes we tend to dig even deeper. As a therapist, my focus is to help individuals, families, and couples move forward.
