Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, or wonder where you “fit in?” Do you struggle getting out of bed, have trouble falling sleep, or find yourself crying or “blowing up” more often? You may be feeling isolated from your friends and family, or have a difficult time reaching out to your social supports. Maybe you are often feeling emotionally exhausted and mentally drained by routines that you used to accomplish with ease. Are you struggling to adapt to the increasingly chaotic world around you, or are you feeling a sense of loss for the life you had?
I believe it is important to truly get to know my clients’ lives, and the paths they have walked, as everyone’s path is unique. My special areas of focus include anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and trauma. I have been fortunate to work with individuals of all ages from diverse populations and backgrounds.
My goal in practice is to work with my clients to empower them to navigate a world that can be overwhelming and stressful. Currently I am offering in person sessions and telehealth. My priority continues to be providing my client’s with a safe space to process, grow, achieve their goals, and deal with navigating these uncertain times.
