Message to clients

I work with clients who struggle with anxiety and depression with primary focuses that include: existential issues, low self-esteem, men's issues and life transitions. The individuals I work with seek to gain the awareness and ability to make intentional decisions towards living a happier life.

I help clients process their old emotional blockages and use a blend of evidenced-based practices, psychodynamic and Existential theory to help them understand the why's and how's of their behavior. With this knowledge, we collaboratively work on an action plan to make changes.

The openness to want more in your life is a courageous step and I welcome the opportunity to support and witness you on this journey. Please contact me for a free consultation.
