Where this work often begins

"I wonder what my dreams mean."

"I get the worst nightmares, and hate going to sleep."

Understand your dreams, ease nightmares, and explore what your unconscious is trying to show you, and what that might mean for your life.  

"What am I supposed to do?" 

"Who am I supposed to be now?"  

Counseling during a time of transition can be a powerful, meaningful, and grounding experience. 

"We keep having the same fights."

"What if we want different things?"

Communicate more honestly, reconnect emotionally, and grow intentionally through life's inevitable changes. 

"Growing up, my faith was such an important part of my life, but now I see it in a different light." 

I welcome those who want to talk about the spiritual part of life. Met with compassion, never dismissed or pathologized. That includes support for religious trauma and deconstruction, too. 

"We can't even talk anymore without it turning into a fight."

Helping adolescents and parents navigating the teen years.  Sometimes together, sometimes separately. 

"I over-think everything."

"I wish I was easy-going."

Anxiety can leave you feeling overwhelmed, on edge, or unable to settle. Sometimes it's connected to difficult experiences that continue to shape how you feel and relate to others.
