This step may seem like a giant leap when you typically consider yourself a self-sufficient, problem-solving, working professional! I strive to create a healthy therapeutic relationship in which you feel safe enough to identify strengths and areas for growth to overcome the barriers to your goals. I have particular interest in assisting working professionals who are struggling with grief, loss, and men’s issues.

I want you to reach your goals towards feeling more comfortable with the change
