Therapy
If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, substance abuse, or any other pressing mental health issues, therapy would likely mean in-office visits. We would meet once per week to help you learn how to do something different in your life.
Therapy may focus on helping you make choices about what you want your life to stand for, as well as adopting skills that make you more flexible and resilient at pursuing a more meaningful life - especially in the face of the challenging thoughts, memories and feelings you may be experiencing.
