Therapy for when your life starts asking bigger questions than you have answers for.
The people I work with often arrive after something has cracked things open: a milestone birthday, a child becoming a teen, a divorce, a death, a fight, a future that hasn't arrived.
And underneath it is a quieter, harder question: is this really my life?
Often, this kind of reckoning doesn't stay quiet. It shows up in dreams that feel too vivid, too strange to shrug off, anxiety with no clear cause, dread in the quiet moments before sleep, the same fight with your partner on repeat, the teenager who feels increasingly out of reach, or work you used to love that now leaves you flat.
You may already know something's off.
What's harder to find is a way to actually work with it.
"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."
Anxiety can interfere with sleep, appetite, and the ability to enjoy relationships. It can strain connections with loved ones and make everyday life feel overwhelming.
Reach out through the contact form and share a little about what’s going on for you right now. We’ll set up a free 15–20 minute call to get a feel for things and see if working together makes sense.
