Unexpected loss, disappointing dreams, lonely relationships, and feelings of being less than or undeserving lead to questions like, “what am I doing wrong?” and “how did I get here?” Perhaps you feel like you’re doing everything right and it’s still not working. Carefully-controlled narratives mask messy, doubt-filled, anxiety-ridden moments. Maybe you even wonder, “Am I enough?”

Do you have a history of trauma or stressful life events? Are you feeling stuck, anxious, angry, or overwhelmed? Sometimes we struggle to be the type of employee, partner, or parent we hope to be. Many of my clients tell me they are having a hard time feeling safe, confident, calm and joyful in their life. They find themselves not fully present or able to enjoy the positive moments and connections in life. If you have been feeling this way, it could relate to trauma or life stress. If you have experienced grief, losses, or a traumatic experience, we can develop a coping plan and begin specialty therapies to help.
