Are you feeling overwhelmed with stress, chronically exhausted and on the verge of burnout? Do you feel like you’re stuck in fight/flight or shutdown mode? Are you experiencing anger, anxiety, depression and/or relying too much on alcohol or other substances to cope? Are you struggling with centering your own needs and desires, or maintaining balance in your life? Are you a helping professional or caregiver? If so, you may benefit from speaking to a professional who specializes in treating stress, burnout, anxiety, depression, addiction, empathic strain/compassion fatigue, trauma exposure and secondary traumatic stress.
Being a human being is hard especially when we don’t quite understand how we’re hardwired and why we think, feel, and act the ways we do. My goal is help you better understand your own inner workings, cultivate psychological flexibility, and enhance your ability to take committed actions towards building a more balanced, manageable, meaningful life.
My professional style is warm, gentle, relaxed, and down to earth, with a dash of east coast humor! I can help you to better understand yourself, make changes in your life, and achieve holistic wellness. So, let’s have a chat, get to know one another, and see if I might be a good fit for you! Book a free 20 min initial consultation on my website.
