The clients I serve are often at a crossroads in their life story and unsure of how to close one chapter and begin anew. Clients I enjoy working with recognize that counseling continues outside of the session in self reflection, exploring behavior change, and shifting how we think and relate to ourselves.

No one needs a "good reason" to come to counseling, for the desire to reach out and try will always be sufficient.
