WELCOME
Welcome to Forward Progress, your companion in the journey towards mental resilience. Here, you're not alone; let's transform challenges into stepping stones, one mindful step at a time.
Where Progress is ALWAYS the Destination
Life is one big puzzle, and there are times when we all need help putting the pieces together. Maybe now is your time. You are reading this right now for a reason: you may be feeling down, feeling overwhelmed, or even having trouble feeling anything at all. If any of this sounds familiar, then perhaps it is time for a change. My primary goal as a therapist is to assist you with experiencing and fully enjoying the best that life has to offer. Whether it be on a mental, emotional, physical, or spiritual level, our work will consist of dedication to the one constant in life: CHANGE.
I will equip you with the tools you need to thrive!
