More and more people are having trouble knowing who they are or where they belong in life. What we were taught growing up or what we learn from society doesn't make sense or apply any longer. Because of this, we have difficulties, from depression to questioning our own belief system. It may appear as confusion, anxiety, anger, or anything that disrupts our day-to-day life. When we feel this way, it is a hurt or loss that is almost impossible to describe. My type of counseling presents people with an opportunity to understand why and how they think and feel the way they do and to go deeper than they could have possibly imagined. What I can offer is trust, empathy, and commitment. We feel no one else can understand whenever we have doubts, negative thoughts, or feelings. I work towards understanding. I can relate to the struggle of going through the drudgery of everyday life. To have lost that spark for life. I can assure you that you are not alone! I am a U.S. Navy veteran and was a 1st responder. I believe this, and being a therapist has prepared me to work with my fellow veterans and first responders. I feel I can offer a unique perspective that can help veterans and first responders better adapt and experience life as needed.
