Are you in your 20s or 30s and really stressed out by work and struggle with making time for other things in your life? Do you struggle to stand up for yourself at work. Do you work harder and more than you'd like? Do you struggle with focus and attention at work that make time management challenging? Do you often feel like you are falling behind? Do you put so much energy into work that you sometimes neglect your own well being or other important relationships in your life? Do you want to think about work less when you aren't working and be more present with those you care about?

Should I stay or should I go? Sometimes stress gets in the way of the life we planned. Getting stuck is never fun...whether it is you, your partner, your children or your job. We become anxious about what to do next because we fear making a mistake. We know that we have to do something because doing nothing makes it worse, not better! Sometimes we simply need some guidance in how to move forward...sometimes help in letting go. I have been helping struggling couples, individuals and families for 30 years. Let me help you.

We are experiencing challenging times. Most of us have also experienced past or recent unresolved trauma. It is physically and emotionally tiresome to carry our past with us into the present while trying to make sense of our place in the world. This can lead to uncertainty, isolation, and a longing for meaningful connection. You may notice feeling unmotivated, depressed, anxious, and/or experiencing disturbances in your sleep and other daily routines. It is possible to heal from the past and move forward with greater emotional presence leading to healthy management of daily stressors and fulfillment in relationships and in life.

I believe that healing of self lays the foundation for showing up authentically in relationships, doing fulfilling work, raising courageous and caring children, and building a more just and safer world for all. I believe that healing of self requires cultivating mind/body states that allow for joy, play, curiosity, and connection. I believe healing of self often means recognizing the ways in which we have been misled, harmed, and/or abused by larger social systems which were not designed for human thriving.
