As we struggle with stress, frustration or anger, we might become anxious and depressed. Expressing thoughts and emotions can be really difficult and uncomfortable, but can feel envigorating, especially when there is no judgment. Counseling can be empowering, lifting some of the emotional weight we carry every day. With a slight shift in mentality, we might open gates to peace and happiness. Coming to counseling is you fighting to feel happy, and I can help you.

In Letters to a Young Poet, Rainer Maria Rilke wrote, “For one human being to love another is perhaps the most difficult task of all, the epitome, the ultimate test. It is that striving for which all other striving is merely preparation.” His writing speaks to the immense psychological importance of our closest relationships. Partnering with another can be a wellspring of immense joy, and just as easily, can induce some of our greatest heartaches and challenges. I understand that couples need more than a good listener to help them navigate their way to healing. They need someone who can guide them toward reconnection and growth.

Negative emotions, difficulties in interpersonal relationships, and trauma can all have a profound impact on our ability to feel well and engage fully with the world around us. Despite these troubles, we all have an incredible capacity for healing. I believe that healing is not a one-size-fits-all experience, so I work with each person individually to create a plan that works to best meet their unique needs.
