What I help people with
My professional experience brings with it the skill to work with a broad range of concerns, difficulties, and most importantly, you.
It is difficult to list everything that I work with as there are many problems in life.
I work with you on the things that you want help with. Ultimately I work with people when life is difficult.
I also like to work with people who want to increase self awareness, and develop.
If you are unsure just contact me.

“Psychotherapy works for the treatment of depression, and the benefits are substantial. In head-to-head comparisons, in which the short-term effects of psychotherapy and antidepressants are pitted against each other, psychotherapy works as well as medication. This is true regardless of how depressed the person is to begin with.
Psychotherapy looks even better when its long-term effectiveness is assessed. Formerly depressed patients are far more likely to relapse and become depressed again after treatment with antidepressants than they are after psychotherapy. As a result, psychotherapy is significantly more effective than medication when measured some time after treatment has ended, and the more time that has passed since the end of treatment, the larger the difference between drugs and psychotherapy.”
― Irving Kirsch, The Emperor's New Drugs: Exploding the Antidepressant Myth
