About My Clients

Do you find yourself falling into the same pattern over and over again? Are you wanting to change, but need someone to give you that push? I want to help you find your way out of suffering and onto the path you choose.

My Background and Approach

Everyday I try to expand my tool bag because I don't believe in a one size fits all solution. My approach is to help you see the issues that you struggle with in a new light and help find what works for you. My approach can best be described as behavioral based along with a focus on systems. I want to show you how your world connects and where your part lies in changing it.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Change is a fundamental aspect of life, but it can be terrifying. People learn unhealthy coping skills to deal with life and then stay in them because it is more comfortable to stay in an unhealthy cycle than to attempt to step outside of it. I believe it is my job to help you take those steps. Stepping outside of therapy, I see the world following similar patterns where they are more comfortable ignoring problems than stepping up to make a change. I believe that it is each of our duties to break the cycle and try something new.
