Congratulations on taking this important step in your life! It takes courage to ask for help. Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety for the future? Do you often feel like you’re stuck on a hamster wheel, exhausted from running but don’t know how to get off? Are you concerned about your use of substances? Have you lost connection with your true self who is excited to experience the world? You are not alone, though it may often feel like it. I understand and I believe I can help! Whether it's substance use, trauma, anxiety, chronic health concerns, or a combination of issues, we can build an plan of action and acceptance.
My work with clients is a strengths-based approach, helping you to tap into your motivation for change. I focus on addiction, trauma, depression/anxiety, and chronic health issues. I take a highly individualized approach to planning our work together. I use elements of CBT, ACT, Polyvagal Theory, and Mindfulness, and always with a trauma-informed approach.
Reaching out for help and support can be difficult, especially when you're feeling vulnerable. When you’re ready to engage with the struggle (and even if you're on the fence!), I’m ready to help you. Email me today so we can schedule a free 20 minute consult to see if we are a good fit to get you on the road to tapping into your true self!
