Taking the first step to start therapy can be a scary and even overwhelming task, it takes courage to make this step towards change. Therapy with me is a collaborative approach, there is no one size fits all approach to therapy, each person and their goals are unique. Together the client and myself will discuss what the person is looking for in therapy and together create a plan that will help that person reach their goal(s).

There are many ways we learn to cope with hurt, stress, and loss and, given our past experiences and upbringing, these ways can often involve avoidance – wanting to escape or numb the pain. This may look like excessive screen use, emotional eating, self-medicating, isolating, self-harm, etc. If you’re noticing that what helped you get by until now no longer works, if it’s impacting your ability to show up in your life and engage with the things you care about most, then I want to be your ally and support you through the process of change.
