We Are Waiting to Hear From You

Meet Your Mental Health Needs and Take Charge of Your Life

Therapy does not need to be an intimidating process. It is a relationship between you and your therapist which is devoted to your well-being and growth. Relieving your pain, reducing your symptoms, or changing your behavior or lifestyle may be part of that goal. The chief overall goal of therapy is to help you become better able to meet your needs, satisfy your desires, and live more freely in this world. Happiness, "feeling better", or similar states are not necessarily the goal, although they may be by-products.


Therapy is often hard work. You will learn to pay attention to your thoughts, your feelings, and your relationships; to honestly acknowledge them (including feelings you wish you never had); to work with unwanted aspects of yourself, to learn to feel painful things and to face ugly realities; to talk candidly and respectfully with people you'd rather avoid; to accept impossible but inevitable situations; to change frightening but changeable ones; to face one's inner monsters and to learn the outer ones - or to name and run away from them!

In our ever-changing world, anxiety can affect all aspects of your life. When anxiety gets in the way of every day life, it is time to work through your challenges through anxiety therapy.

The therapist's job is to listen carefully, to point out strengths that have been unnoticed and weaknesses that have been ignored, to look for hope when you are hopeless and danger when you are naive, to allow you to be dependent when you fear depending and to challenge you to grow up when you would love to stay little. In short, the therapist's job is to assist you to learn to meet your needs, satisfy your desires, and live more freely in this world. Call us or send us a message to set up your consultation today!

Comment from Our Owner

While growing up, an individual experiences countless differing fields of psychology and mental health without even realising it. These can range from simple interactions in daily life, to the infrequent or for some, frequent, emotional trauma which accompanies losing a loved one, going through a divorce, experiencing financial or housing insecurity, adverse childhood experinces, abusive or highly conflictual relationshipsand so many more experiences that we may not typically clasify as "traumatic." Its important that we recognize that trauma is not defined by the event but the impact of it. In such instances, psychology plays both a direct and indirect role in the lives of those affected, yet many choose not to delve deeper into understanding the mental processes and why the situation or event in question had such an impact on them. I am drawn to the therapy world as I decided at a certain point that I no longer want to play an indirect role in my life, but instead wish to acknowledge the full extent of the human mind and its functions, and the act of doing so, for me, is empowering. I wish to share this process with my clients, meet them where they are, and provide guidance in how to achieve deeper understanding of their own experiences and pursue empowerment in the way they define it for themselves.


With that said, therapy can also be a much lighter experience in which we are simply navigating life's stresses and using humor and problem solving to save the world, or at least send you off into a better day.



Regardless of the issue, and I specialize in many, I want you to feel safe, comfortable, productive and in control of what can be a very powerful transformation. We look forward to meeting you soon!
