Hi, I'm Lorelei and I love working with adults and couples. I know by the time you come to therapy, often you've been struggling for awhile on your own. Well I believe many of your answers are already within you and it's my job to help reveal them. I'm an expert listener and will help you deal with anxiety, stress, depression, self-doubt, cleaning up the past, boundaries, and more.

Not always, but doing the work and feeling better will help tremendously so you're living the life you were meant to.

Have you ever found yourself in need of someone to talk to, only to feel like there's no one you can turn to?

At Inner Balance, YOU are our primary and central focus. I value the courage it takes to be vulnerable and provide a secure space for you to explore your past, present, and future. I'm here to offer the support and validation you need to evolve into the person you aspire to be.

Finding the right therapist can be exhausting. This one is too hard. That one is too soft. It sounds like something out of Goldilocks and the Three Bears doesn’t it? You’re likely browsing this profile because your past has been painful. Maybe you’re feeling stuck – unable to move forward. Maybe it feels like your emotions are more in control of you than you are of them. Or maybe you fluctuate between feeling disconnected and shut down to feeling completely on edge. If any of this sounds familiar, then you and I might be the right fit.
