Im here to help you during this transitional journey.

Individual Therapy

Individual therapy is a process where clients work one on one with a psychotherapist in a safe and confidential environment. Time in session will be geared towards the client. Therapy provides clients with the opportunity to explore their own thoughts, feelings and behaviors. As well as process memories, dreams, trauma, etc. Clients can learn to better understand themselves, learn coping skills, and be better equipped to confront life’s challenges. Clients will work with psychotherapist to set goals, and work toward desired change.

Couples Therapy

Couples therapy is a process where couples work with a psychotherapist in a safe and confidential environment. To gain insight, resolve conflict, and work towards improving relationship satisfaction. Couples will work with the psychotherapist to set goals to focus on a specific problem such as sexual difficulties, intimacy, jealousy, communication, and among others. In couples therapy the couple/relationship is treated as a whole, rather than treating each individual. The psychotherapist is unable to keep secrets among, couples. Couples therapy is geared at gaining insight into relational dynamics, in order to change behaviors
