You wish you could just relax, but all the responsibilities of modern life get in the way. It’s hard to feel hopeful when you’re always so drained. You may be fed up with the constant anxiety of trying to keep it all together, feeling alone trying to meet everyone’s expectations, or doubting that things will ever get better. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to feel happy. You’re ready to feel connection and love. Most of all, you’re ready to take back control of your life.
I help: first-gen and bicultural folks around issues of identity, intergenerational trauma, and navigating familial expectations with autonomy; young professionals establish boundaries, recover from burnout/imposter syndrome, and live a life closer to their values; and athletes recovering from injury so they can regain their confidence and get back to sport
Clients come to me looking for a therapist who is interactive and engaging, because therapy should be a place where you feel seen, heard, and comfortable enough to speak about the uncomfortable. Together, we will work to get you to a place where you feel more empowered and ready to take on life’s challenges. I invite you to schedule your free consultation!
