When anxiety, depression, grief, and stress feel never ending, we can find ourselves reacting in ways we wouldn’t normally or having perpetual frustration and disconnection with ourselves, others, and the world. It can feel like our situation, relationships, and mental health won’t or can’t get better. From both my professional and personal experience, I have seen the relief and power that comes from the courageous step to seek support and how connection with safe and supportive people can help heal and restore us.

Do you feel a bit wobbly, worried, stressed out, or stuck in repeating patterns that aren’t working for you anymore? Maybe you’re having a tough time navigating through anxiety, depression, or complicated personal relationships. Perhaps you’d like to get better at communicating with the ones in your life that matter the most. You could also be wondering why painful memories from long ago keep popping up and you wonder if there’s a way to make them stop. Facing all of this alone can feel overwhelming, but real healing and change can come when you connect with someone you trust and feel fully safe with.

I work with people who want to improve their relationships, gain more clarity and intention, and learn to show up well in their lives. I work a lot with moms around the stresses of motherhood and womanhood. I teach clients how their emotions, triggers and thoughts impact their actions and lives, and work with the client to create strategies around emotional resilience, habit change and presence. I aim to be empathetic, curious, and lighthearted but also challenge my clients to learn new things about themselves and what they want from their lives.

Any one of us can face hard times or crises in our personal, work, or social lives. Stressors such as traumatic events, significant life changes, stacking of duties, huge responsibilities, negative peers, disapproving family, etc. can create pressure that feels like it is taking over our lives. We can feel overwhelmed, hopeless, lonely, stuck, scared, angry and more. When we experience this it can feel like our ability to cope is just beyond our grasp. Our job isn't fun anymore, our home life becomes affected, and we feel like things are slipping away. Holding on to this pain can make it last much longer. Let's chat about it.
