It is hard to say what my ideal client is because I believe that I am capable of working with various types of people and that each person is unique. Even with a "challenging" client, I have learned a lot and found value in the work. With that being said, my ideal client has a history of trauma that has impacted their ability to connect with others and themselves. They are struggling with body image, intrusive thoughts, and anxiety about how others are perceiving them. They want to be empowered to advocate for themselves when necessary and create a wellness routine that serves as a preventative measure for mental health problems.

**ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS IN-PERSON** "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."-Lao Tzu. The first step can often be the hardest.

Together we can build healthy coping skills and discover the strengths that you already have.

You want to move past racing thoughts and avoiding your life. Past sadness and low motivation. Past the same draining arguments with your partner. Past experiences that follow you and won't stay in the past. And past big decisions that get you stuck. You are looking to get out of feeling overwhelmed. You want to learn how to get more control. You want more than mediocre cookie-cutter therapy. You want therapy that is personalized for you and about you. You want therapy that fits into your stressful life. Even if asking for help is hard for you, you’re at a point where you are ready to do it because you want something to change.

“Life is full of ups and downs. The trick is to enjoy the ups and have courage during the downs.” Throughout our life, each of us will experience stress, trauma, or a crisis that can trigger overwhelming emotions, making us feel out of control. Even exciting occasions such as marriage, a new career, or the birth of a child, come with change and can make us feel anxious and unsure in a way we have never felt before. My goal as a therapist is to help my clients cope with and navigate these changes.
