Listen, are you breathing just a little, and calling it a life?

Real, everyday life is – let’s be honest – a bit mundane and often repetitive. It’s full of routine and to-do lists. At times, it feels like life contains an endless supply of days.
Then it hits you. A health scare, the loss of someone you loved, a tragedy that rocks your world, or the devastating feeling that your life has no direction, no meaning, no purpose. You realize that time is a precious - and scarce - commodity. Perhaps that’s how you made it here today. You’ve been watching life pass you by.
In therapy, I’ll help you form a simple, direct, and honest relationship with yourself and your world. You’ll learn how to be guided by your values so you can participate more fully and meaningfully in life.
