The reasons for seeking therapy are as varied as the individuals themselves. My humanistic pragmatic approach to therapy allows me to tailor treatment to meet the needs of the individual client. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, addiction, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope to overcome problems that may be holding you hostage.

We wonder why they don’t just 'stop.' Efforts to help can sometimes push the individual further away, making them avoid people or situations that force them to face their thoughts, feelings, and behavior changes. When confronted, they may become defensive and unwilling to listen, reluctant to talk about their problems, and afraid of judgment.
