I begin maternity leave October 1st, 2024- NYE! You don't have to feel the way you are feeling forever. You have tried a number of different things and things aren’t working. You're not sure where to start but feel that doing it alone seems impossible and daunting. The individual I typically see feels stuck and wants to make the necessary changes to improve their communication for self and others, build their self-esteem and confidence, process emotions, and recover. Therapy provides a nonjudgmental space to work through life's hardships and stressors. Change can be very difficult however so is staying in the same place.

All of us deserve to savor what life has to offer to the fullest extent possible. Many experience that journey as compromised by difficult transitions or painful circumstances in their lives, threatening to rob them of their joy. These blockages may come from events in the present such as loss of a loved one or a deteriorating relationship; or they may result from earlier events that have left wounds/scars unhealed. We provide individual, group, and family sessions to help create awareness and understanding of how to get back to 'Me'. We explore issues and allow clients to choose to heal mentally, spiritually, and emotionally.

You’re exhausted with trying to live up to everyone's standards. Your partner, your kids, your parents, your work. You feel like you can't get it right and you're just trying to keep it all together. You want to show up better for yourself and your family, but lately just getting through the day is a win. Your inner critic is loud and overpowering, pointing out flaws in yourself every day. You find yourself getting snippy with your family and playing back past frustrations in your head over and over again. You want to be your best for everyone but most days you’re too exhausted. You crave a sense of peace and rest.

Life is a journey full of joy, disappointment, fear, courage, unexpected blessings and unplanned circumstance. We encounter barriers that appear to block our dreams from reality and challenges that make us feel unworthy and incapable of ever achieving success. The purpose of the journey, however, is to GROW through every adversity and every triumph and flourish. My ideal client seeks to be empowered through their growth process to achieve clarity, self-awareness and self-development. Although growth can be painful, the goal is to thrive after the breakthrough and to allow the transformation to better themselves and others.
