About me
You want something to change, but don't know where to start.
Maybe it's how you feel: Sometimes your thoughts, feelings, emotions, stories, and sensations try to get in the way of moving toward what's meaningful to you.
Maybe it's how your relationship feels: Sometimes the communication patterns between the two of you can erode trust and commitment, leaving your relationship bond damaged or broken.
Maybe you're haunted by your past: Like broken glass, many traumatic memories can be fragmented and jagged, stored in your mind and body, emotionally wounding you over and over again, until you're left dejected and exhausted.
We're wounded in relationships... and we're healed in relationships.
Let me help.
Here's what I believe: Things can be different. You can effect change in your life, on the inside and on the outside. You can feel better and get better. You can move toward what's meaningful to you.
Here's How I Can Help:
Internal "Stuff": The thoughts, feelings, emotions, stories, and sensations that try to prevent movement toward what's meaningful to you.
External "Stuff": The conflict that lives in the space between committed people that erodes trust and commitment, preventing movement toward the bond.
Traumatic Memories: Fragments of emotional intensity trapped in the mind and body, triggering cascades of turbulence that interfere with daily living.
I'm a therapist and clinical counselor based in Westfield, IN, and I'm about helping you move toward what's meaningful to you, when your thoughts and feelings try to get in the way.
Know this: I want this to work as much as you do, and I will never judge you.

Jerry has been nothing but exceptional. He's exactly what I was looking for in a therapist. A real human being with their own problems who helps me from a fatherly standpoint and helps me understand the issues I'm dealing with. I was afraid of therapy but now I actually look forward to talking to Jerry every single week.
