Sometimes you need a hand.
You might feel upside down, off-kilter, a bit down.
You may feel more than bummed and cannot shake it. Maybe you do not like your job or the work environment.
Maybe your relationship has been draining you. Or maybe a relationship ended.
There are a lot of reasons we seek help. Counseling or therapy is a way to gain an outlet for support and a new perspective. A way to unload some of the burden you have been carrying. Please feel free to reach out to me for a free phone consult. You can ask me questions, and I will ask you for a general idea of what is going on.
Here’s my phone and email. Call, text or send an email and we’ll get started.

The Benefits of Therapy

Many clients have told me how even after the first appointment they feel a bit better. It is vital that you feel comfortable with a counselor/therapist. Try calling more than one practitioner.
You will want to get out what’s going on and be honest. That is another reason it is important to feel comfortable with your therapist. In your first appointment we have background to cover, I aim to help you gain more focus, a beginning plan, some actions to do – thoughts to consider. That way, you get started right away on a path to assist you in feeling better.
Seeing my clients achieve more peace of mind, resilience, confidence, happiness and self-satisfaction is why I do this work.
Here is a list of therapy approaches I may draw from: Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eclectic Therapy, Existential / Humanistic Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Narrative Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Relational Psychotherapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Transactional Analysis. There are other perspectives as well.
I am listening to what you say. With careful observation both by me, and yourself, along with open communication, we are well on the way.
