It is time to actually make those changes you have been really wanting. You know your past is holding you back, you just aren't sure what to do about it. The pain from the past, the old family issues, the failed relationships - they are dragging you down. Sure you have supportive friends, but at this point, even they aren't sure what to say. If simply talking about it was helpful, you would be on your way by now. The next step, toward actual change, is to do something - and that is where therapy can help. Let's figure out why and how you are stuck so you can make changes.

My focus in working alongside you is to help you understand who you are today and, more importantly, who you would like to become. I know how difficult it can be to connect and invite someone new into your life, but my goal is to provide you with a sanctuary from the pain and help you uncover the answers you have been searching for. Often, life can leave you feeling alone, afraid, or at a loss with how to move on. Maybe you feel like if people really knew you, you would be left out in the cold. Perhaps you’re being shamed for who you are and what you need already. While you might struggle to believe it right now, things can change.

My clients are often high-achievers - the “good” person/student, the one who is always there for others, who is always “fine” and doesn’t seem to have any problems - but that’s not how they feel. On the inside, they are hurting deeply. They push down their own feelings and needs resulting in things like numbness, anxiety, depression, and being self-silenced. They may even develop addictive or self-destructive behaviors to try to feel a sense of control. They find putting words to emotions and communicating feelings and needs to others can be difficult or even seem impossible.
