MAKING SENSE OF “IT’S COMPLICATED”

Life is complicated and the details always matter. Equally, people are complex, and their individual journeys are important to understand when trying to make sense of the complicated.  People can easily feel misunderstood, judged and be overwhelmed by or angry at the circumstances they find themselves in.  Whether you are seeking a forensic evaluation or therapeutic services, I am focused on understanding your perspective, exploring and explaining how things came to be, making sense of the complicated and helping pave a path forward.
