Welcome!
Life is full of challenging circumstances that we never expected and nobody prepared us for. I work with individuals and couples who are struggling. “I’m sad, numb, overwhelmed, and irritable,” “I don’t know how to handle this (divorce, job loss, losing a loved one).” Couples that fight about the same thing over and over again, wondering if it will ever stop…are relationships supposed to be this tough???
Perhaps you are part of a blended family? What would your family member, neighbor, or friend think if you could voice your thoughts out loud? “Does my spouse love their kids more than they love ours?” “If only my spouse’s ex wasn’t such a *&%^$.”
Do any of these sound familiar to you? If any of this hits home, know that you are not alone. Together we will walk through what you are experiencing and create a plan. A plan for you to become the person you are meant to be, a plan for your relationship to heal, or a plan for everyone in your blended family to be loved, accepted, and heard.

Does life just suck right now? If just one of your problems went away what would that feel like? Would it feel like you could breathe again, maybe all of your anxiety or sadness is gone, or perhaps you are FINALLY getting the help you need from your loved ones. Trying to figure all of this out by yourself can be overwhelming, throw a life event in there such as relationship issues, divorce, or a change in employment, and you can lose your sense of self. I won’t let that happen.

About
Hi there, I’m Mandy. I wanted to share with you why I do what I do…essentially why I became a therapist. If you are thinking about sharing some of your stuff with me, then I think I can share some of mine with you. There’s usually a reason we therapists become; well therapists, and, for me...
