Let's be real. You are here looking for a therapist because something in you knows it is time for change. Whether that change is just for you or within your relationships... whether it is old stuff you "should be over," new stuff that is just hitting, or another combination of life's challenges... I'm here, ready to walk through it with you. You are here, and that is the first courageous step. Let's take the next step together by scheduling a free consultation call to see if we are a good fit. Please note: In order to provide you with personalized & flexible therapy, I do not accept insurance. I do accept HSA, Debit, & Credit Cards.

If you're reading this, I want you to know how courageous it is that you've already taken the first step: asking for help. It's something no one wants to do, but I've been there, and it can be the change you need to live the life you were meant to. Being vulnerable and brave enough to tell your story is tough. But getting you to the place where you can actually own your story, and maybe even write a new ending, is totally worth it.

Do you live in a constant sense of disconnection-no matter what you do, things never feel quite "okay?" Do you feel controlled by your emotions, overwhelmed by the pressure to accomplish? Does past trauma impact how you show up daily? Has this snowballed into a constant sense of anxiety, stress, and disappointment? Is your self-care and relationships struggling also? Do communication breakdowns and conflict feel like the norm? Do you feel frustrated by the disconnection that has emerged in your life, and it is hard to know how to break the cycle? There is a way to ask for what you need without sacrificing your own boundaries.

But the good news is that if you're prone to emotional eating, you can take steps to regain control of your eating habits and get back on track with your weight-loss goals. Learn how you can control your triggers and cravings to eating fatty foods and maintain a new and healthy life style.
