Stress highly depletes your energy to deal with problems. When feeling tired, frustrated and hopeless, it can seem like there are no solutions.

As you explore thoughts and feelings, you become more self-aware. Your energy increases and you become stronger, then able to learn effective coping skills to overcome challenges and to thrive.

You can outsmart any talk therapist just to end up suppressing even more of your emotions. You often feel stuck in your mind, wondering WHY you feel the way you feel and HOW to "fix it". You often go on autopilot for days or weeks before the emotional overwhelm catches up with you. The anxiety, perfectionism, uncertainty, negative body image, worries, and internal clutter spin like a washing machine in your head. It's too much, so you find comforting ways to numb out... Still, you want to understand your patterns and process your past. You are ready to put in the work to finally feel grounded. To actually feel stuff...

It is easy to feel overwhelmed, exhausted, stressed and disconnected in our world today. The patterns that we have built throughout our lives can keep us “stuck”. Through the exploration of these patterns we can find balance, reconnect with ourselves and others while creating more positive and healthy patterns. It is through this understanding that we can shape and reintegrate new approaches, perceptions and behaviours better suited to our needs and goals.

Our world is so complex. People are trying to navigate a world that is ever changing and constantly challenging. Maybe you are trying to fit in and feel appreciated. Or maybe you wonder how to find a moment to be alone and feel at peace. Maybe the last thing you want to do is be alone. Or maybe you feel disconnected and that no matter how hard you try, you just aren't able to connect with the people who are most important to you. These are all different outcomes that result when you don't feel emotionally safe and secure, attached, and valued in this chaotic world. When you are ready to change these outcomes, I am here to help.

Do you ever struggle with feeling disconnected from others or even yourself? Do you ever think that life should be easier? Do you ever feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated, lost due to the pressure to live up to other people's standards, or to just get through the day? Do you ever question, wonder, or hope that things could be better? So many people are feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, & anxious about how to manage their careers, relationships, and lives. Neglecting your own needs and not taking time for yourself often leads to difficulties for both your mind and body. I believe that it shouldn't be so hard to live a better life.

The uncertainty of life can sometimes shed light on our fragility and vulnerability, leaving us with a sincere desire to seek the strength within ourselves. I am ready to work with you in co-building this strength to create a meaningful change in your life, whether it is in the domain of understanding yourself and your purpose, improving your relationships with family and loved ones, or gaining clarity and guidance on your career paths and education.
