Life can come at you pretty hard sometimes. Even when it’s not, sometimes things just aren’t working the way you want them to. Taking that first step and reaching out to ask for help is one of the strongest things you can do. Therapy has been transformative in my own life and I’m hoping it can help you too. My therapeutic approach starts with you. I believe you are your own best counselor, sometimes you just need help getting started or with where you might be stuck.

It has been a while since you felt stuck, terrified, hopeless, or worthless. Yet, you have always been smiling to pretend you are okay. Or you are very used to distancing yourself because “nobody cares about me”. Life can be very challenging when you can hardly recognize the person next to you, more importantly, when you can’t even recognize yourself. Whether it has been years over the same issues and difficulties, or there has been a sudden tragic change to your life, believe it! You are already doing the best you can at any given moment!

Feeling out of control over what you care about the most can make you feel like your world is crumbling around you. Feelings of worry, fear, confusion, anger, and sadness can make your relationships, parenting, work, or your education seem impossible and feel like a heavy burden. My passion is helping people realize or remember that they are capable, strong, worthy, and significant. I look to understand your pain and concern, and I want to tell you that you CAN overcome these obstacles that come your way in life. Having peace of mind is a mind frame.

I know what it feels like to want to be your best self so badly but struggle with getting there. You have high standards, big goals, and lofty dreams and yet the day to day is a constant source of stress, anxiety, overwhelm, guilt, and shame. You want to be the best at everything-the best partner, friend, worker and have the best body and dream life. And with all this pressure then comes this sense that you're doing something wrong or that there is something wrong with you, and you'll never get there. However, what if I told you, none was the case. That the secret to your dreams is being you right now, alive, joyous, and free.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the demands of adult life? Balancing your career, relationships, and responsibilities can feel like an endless struggle.

Life is challenging. Give your Self a space to speak. Being a woman in today's day and age with increased demands and expanding roles, can lead to feeling overwhelmed and depleted. Feeling as if you are alone and that few to none know what's REALLY going on inside can make the journey that much harder and limit us from available resources and tools. My sessions are designed for Women struggling to keep up with the continuous demands of life including: Managing Work-life Balance, Parenthood, Phase-of-Life Changes, Trauma, Relationship Problems, Career Dissatisfaction, Role Identity and the almost obsolete concept of Self-Care.
