Let’s face it, life can leave you feeling like you’re caught in a riptide with no control over where you’re going. It’s easy to lose your way...drifting far from the life you see when you close your eyes & dream. I want you to know that no matter how you feel right now, you're not alone. Clients come to me for a combination of skills, proven strategies, encouragement, and support that increases their goal achievement and confidence. My passion is helping YOU live your dream by teaching you simple but effective strategies for managing negative habits, fear & self-doubt while providing you compassionate accountability-based support.

Are you finding it difficult to navigate through each day, weighed down by the heavy burden of depression, anxiety, and the lingering effects of past traumas? Perhaps you're experiencing persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or emptiness, making it hard to find joy in life. Maybe anxiety constantly tightens its grip on you, leaving you feeling on edge, restless, or overwhelmed by worry. And the echoes of past traumas may haunt you, manifesting as intrusive memories, flashbacks, or a pervasive sense of disconnection from yourself and others.

I work with individuals and couples who are struggling. Though each struggle is unique, I operate from the standpoint that pain is universal. For the person that struggles to fully understand and express what they're feeling, for the teenager or young adult who struggles operating within the world they are inheriting, or for the couple that struggles to build or maintain friendship, love, or affection, recognizing and embracing those struggles are the first steps towards overcoming them. I work with those who want to feel more like themselves, and those who want to begin embodying the selves they aspire to be.

You feel stuck! Life's challenges, traumas, heartbreaks, relationship problems, and society's expectations have knocked you down and it feels impossible to get back up. You feel like you cannot heal from past hurts, feel joy, peace, and love, measure up, or thrive the way others do. You're afraid to be vulnerable about what you are going through because no one would understand or they might judge. You never thought this would be your life. There should be more to this life but you can't seem to get a hold of "more". You feel alone, sad, worried, and hopeless, and just wish it could all go away and be better when you blink your eyes.
