I help adults struggling to form deep and meaningful relationships with others as a result of lonely or painful childhood experiences. My ideal client is motivated for change and is open to developing a curiosity about his or her inner experiences. As a therapist, I am relationship-focused and believe that, while it does not define us, our early life experiences form templates from which we operate in our lives. Sometimes those templates or "old ways" no longer work for us meaningfully and we find ourselves stuck. My ideal client is open to assessing relationships with others, themselves, and past experiences to bring vibrancy and enrichment to their lives. Should this be you, I want to empower you by building awareness and insight from a holistic/integrative perspective so you can respond to life with choice and freedom. You deserve to breathe easier.

I view therapy through a holistic standpoint, in which I use the mind and the body to help you get to the wellness that you so deserve.

Glad you stopped by! I'm Larry Goble, a licensed Clinical Social Worker. Taking the step to talk to a therapist is not easy. You are showing courage and determination to explore what it might be like. In working with folks who are feeling stuck, anxious, maybe sad and confused, I find using a practical and sometimes humorous approach helps to learn and develop specific ways to counter stress, manage thoughts and feelings that can overwhelm you, and to increase self-confidence.

I also incorporate some mindfulness and positive psychology to help you re-establish a positive relationship with yourself. Whether you're managing overwhelming life stressors, setting healthy boundaries, or dealing with cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can seem intimidating but you are taking the first strong step in getting your power back. In our sessions together, I will meet you with open ears ready to learn about you and your needs and with evidence-based tools you can use to overcome these setbacks. I look forward to working with you!
