Congratulations on seeking assistance with your difficulties! It might be easier than you think once we get underway. I welcome your reaching out.

The idea of starting therapy can be daunting. But a lot of people find that it brings relief, and that it feels like a talk with a supportive friend (with a couple of important differences, of course). I've been a psychotherapist for 30 years, and I'm still gratified by the insights and growth that my clients experience.
