For many people, the decision to seek therapy is made during a stressful time such as a breakup or a life transition. Although painful at the moment, this difficult time can serve as a motivator, leading to lasting change and greater life satisfaction. I provide a safe, authentic, and non-judgmental space to help you work through this stress and develop new coping strategies. In therapy we will explore your current and past relationships in order to promote insight and positive change. We will focus on practical skills that can help you get through this difficult period.
