Hi! I’m Jeff, I’m happy to meet you. 

I love being a therapist for a million reasons.  One reason that has never faded for me over the years is that I believe it is deeply important to have a person be with you when you are going through something hard in your life.  Everyone, myself included, has their walk to take through life. 

Sometimes relationships fail or get complicated.  Sometimes we lose something.  Sometimes we feel or remember something deeply and painfully.  Other times it’s just feeling like you have no idea what you’re supposed to do as a parent or as a professional.  Wherever you are on your road, it’s important to me that you know I’m here to help. 

I am a therapist, but I could also complete the sentence “I am…” in many other ways that are true.  I am a husband, a business owner, a friend, a brother, hiker… and the list goes on. 

“I ams” are useful to help us understand ourselves, and they’re also the framing we use to create our identity.  Framing can be taken apart and rebuilt into anything we want, but it takes stripping all the parts down and being totally open to the inner workings of ourselves.  It means putting aside how you present yourself, and getting with who you are.  Letting your raw self come out into the world can be scary, but it is always authentic.  Having a guide, a sounding board, or a confidant can help you take that step.
