We can all become stuck, overwhelmed, hopeless, or just feel we’re not living our best lives for many different reasons. Additionally, the current unrest in society around us can shake a sense of security or predictability we may have held about what our futures hold. These may cause disruptions in sleep and appetite and encourage negative thoughts and moods to grow and persist. Whatever your struggles, I ensure professional care that is collaborative, respectful, and that has your best interests at heart.
Throughout my years of experience, I have been given the opportunity to assist individuals with a wide range of both emerging and persistent mental health issues, including those that involve mood, anxiety, substance abuse, relationship dynamics, phase of life problems, as well as sexual orientation and gender identity issues.
Often, resolving underlying issues such as fear, shame, abuse or neglect are key to healing. We'll address such issues and build hope by helping you increase in personal insight and in tools needed to create more balance in your life. Resources I will help you identify and build on include your personal strengths, support systems, and sense of spirituality.
