Life is hard. Wherever you are currently, our guess is it’s not exactly the way you had envisioned it when you were a kid. Some of that is because of our own choices and mistakes; other parts are from bad hands we were dealt along the way. Regardless of how you got here, we know one thing to be true: You want your life to be different than it is right now. The problem is how to make that happen. There is an endless number of opinions on what you should do and, if we’re honest, it can be ov...

I named my practice Conversations Therapy because I have always felt that the words “therapy” and “counseling” have a bad reputation. Some people think that seeking therapy is admitting weakness; others think that their therapist will judge them or tell them that they are “bad” or “broken.” In reality, neither of these things could be further from the truth. Rather, seeking therapy requires strength and determination. Furthermore, therapy can and should be a good experience. At Conversations The...

Through therapy, we look at ways in which your thoughts and beliefs shape your entire reality...
You want to appear confident & in control, but deep down you're silently struggling to keep it together. You may be fed up with being everyone's "rock", feeling riddled with frustration and anxiety, or wondering who you are outside of all the "hats" you wear on autopilot. You may not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for relief. You’re ready to release the things that you've been holding in. You’re ready to unhook from the cycle of burnout,...
You are so brave to be searching for a counselor. Showing up and starting is the hardest part when life is overwhelming. You feel like you can't narrow down your symptoms to one category because you feel ALL of the things, maybe even all at the same time. Confusion, stress, pain, heartbreak, fear, loneliness, sadness and anger are your normal. Because when you've experienced hard, difficult things in your life, those feelings ARE normal. You're tired of "faking" being ok as life has become o...
