Therapy helps you craft a healthy relationship with yourself and others, and supports meaningful life choices. My clients struggle with issues such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, loneliness, relationship challenges, questions around life direction, and personal identity.

Life can often become mundane and we may lose our enthusiasm and forget that we deserve a richer, more meaningful experience. We need one another to be reignited and to remember our gifts and purpose. If you're wondering "Where do I go from here?", you're not alone. Together we can discover solutions and create ideas to move forward in a more fulfilled way.

Do you know what you want? Do you want to be free? Happy? Relaxed in your body? Content? Passionate and sexy? Courageous in the face of fear? More connected to your partner or to the Divine? How do you get in the way of living the life you want? Do you constantly judge yourself? Noticing all the ways you "fail" to live up to way you "should" be. Or do you tend to direct that criticism outwards? Blaming others, feeling envy, or always waiting for external circumstances to line up just right so you can finally live how you want.

I love working with clients who want to be free of ingrained patterns that aren't working, whether from sub-optimal parenting or other experiences.

Clients who enjoy working with me want more aliveness and freedom, more flow and resilience. They want encouragement & new challenges, and will attend to their experience, unfolding the paths forward.
