Seeing your child struggle is such a helpless feeling. You wish you could find the right words that would fix it all, but nothing that you say, and no amount of logic that you use seems to help. Perhaps you have even tried therapy before, with little progress or success, and you're not sure if this is even a fixable problem. Your child's struggles have become the focus of the entire family. You just want your happy little boy or girl back and to have normalcy restored at home.

Seeing your child struggle with anxiety is such a helpless feeling. Your daughter is paralyzed with fear about what others may think of her, and nothing that you say can comfort her. Your son freezes on homework and tests, feeling that everything must be perfect, and you feel guilty, as you wonder if you've passed these anxious thoughts down to him. Sunday night comes and they're preoccupied with the thought of the impending school week, and no matter how rational you are with them, they can't shake the dread that comes with going to school.

Are you feeling stuck, burnt out, overwhelmed, or lost in life? Are you struggling to break harmful addictive/habitual patterns? Are you having difficulty navigating new conflicts in your family or relationship? Perhaps you are beginning to feel like something is wrong with you, or perhaps you have felt that way for a long time. I know how hard and painful it can feel to navigate these challenges alone. We humans are social creatures, built for connection, yet our sociocultural environment is increasingly isolating. It should be no wonder that more people are reporting feeling depressed and anxious.

Anxiety doesn’t have to be permanent problem, even if you’ve always thought of yourself as an anxious person. Anxiety is learned and it can be un-learned. I’d like to help you retrain your brain to be a source of comfort and positivity. With less anxiety, you can direct your energy towards things you really value instead of worrying all the time. There is no more valuable project than your well-being, and it’s well worth the effort. I use research-backed therapy and provide my clients with actionable tools, techniques, and skills to help them make progress.

Right now you may be in need and suffering? The body has a deep intelligence and sometimes our attention is required to feel well again. Take a moment to notice that you're breathing. When you're ready take two or three long deep breaths. You have more control than you think.
