Feeling stuck or like something is missing in your life? You're not alone. Many of the people who reach out to me feel lost or like they're at a crossroads. Or they want to make big changes but don't know where to start. Often, they've been struggling for a long time. Stuck in the same painful cycles. Thinking about getting help, but putting it off for one reason or another. Whatever the case, they're united by something important: a desire to get back to themselves and to actually enjoying life, rather than just going through the motions. And that desire for wholeness is precisely where their healing work can begin.

While therapy can be quite challenging, laughter is common my sessions.

Getting to the point where you feel like you need therapy can feel awful. You have probably tried many ways of getting better and they haven't worked for you or not well enough. Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, confused, powerless and disconnected from yourself and others? You don't need to feel like you aren't good enough. You don't need to feel stuck in anger, sadness, fear or disgust. You don't need to feel like your past is heavy and weighing you down in the present. You can process your past so you can live in the present moment. You can feel good about yourself and connect to others. You deserve joy now and in the future.

If you have had traumatic or painful events, or if you are in toxic relationships, keep reading because I may be able to help you. On a warm Tuesday morning in September, my mother died after a period of great suffering. I could not imagine my life without her, and I did not have any idea how my life was going to continue. Her doctor encouraged me to see my mother’s death as though it had brought her freedom. Freedom was a concept that I had never known before; sadness and pain were what I knew. On that day, I started my search of freedom until I found it years later.

Are you struggling with personal or career demands, persistent negative belief systems or trauma (past or present)? The professions, pressures and adversity we all face are unique, but the common mental load of 'trying to do it all' crosses all demographics and employment sectors.

Addressing underlying trauma themes and negative beliefs, while pragmatically navigating our numerous responsibilities will lead to a more peaceful and successful experience, personally or professionally.

I strive to meet my clients where they are at, and to help them achieve the changes they seek. I believe that under the right circumstances, clients have the capacity to look inward, to free themselves from feeling stuck in the past, and to find new ways to move forward. This often requires hard work, but growth and change are possible when clients are given a safe space to explore unhelpful patterns of thinking and learn to think and behave in healthier ways. By clarifying their personal meaning, clients can be empowered to choose new directions in life.
