Has your life been completely shattered? Do you want to begin to pick up the pieces but have no idea where to start? You cannot believe that someone you love, someone you trust, some you give your all to would cause you so much pain. You continue to play over and over again different scenarios of where the relationship went wrong or think about how stupid you were for all the things you did to keep the relationship. My work as a therapist is to empower you to use the spirit within you, to overcome the shame, pain, and fear caused by your relationship.
