Wanting to get to the "why" of your and others behaviors and thinking can be a lifetime of healing. Have you ever wondered about why male and females are so different? I study that and have 7 brothers. I graduated from the U of U in social work. I know that my own journey in life and doing my own work can really help others do the same. One of my favorite work experiences was in drug and alcohol treatment. Your background does not define who you are. Having a safe place to be heard, understood and process is my intention. Feel free to cry and yell. I like to give resources that could be used now or they maybe helpful for the future. Let's find the joy together.

We all feel a little off now and then. If you’ve been wondering if counseling might be helpful, you’ve come to the right place! Asking for help is the first step to a better you, and is a sign of strength, not weakness. Therapy can bring clarity to a life hijacked by life's challenges.
