There are times when you feel as though you have tried everything and it's difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Going through that tunnel alone can be extremely scary and anxiety provoking. Facing those challenges may be painful and going though all the different emotions are overwhelming. Therapy can be a safe space for individuals to learn how to identify, process and heal from their past. It can be difficult to heal from the past without the proper tools, therefore prioritizing the importance of individualizing this journey to your specific needs is one of the most important aspects of starting therapy.

It is my passion and privilege to assist my clients in feeling alive, connected and at peace in their relationships and within themselves. Every day I hear clients say that our work has truly transformed their lives - that they are no longer triggered by old patterns, that their confidence and happiness is greater than they have ever experienced. Changes such as these are possible through a collaborative exploration of past and present issues in an atmosphere of safety, compassion and respect - respect for the individual and respect for the mind's ability to heal.

Life can be overwhelming, leaving us feeling stuck, confused, and struggling. But there is hope; you don't have to face it alone. Deep-seated wounds from the past can affect many areas of our lives. Healing is hard to do alone, and I'm here to help. I understand that we are more than physical–we have complex dimensions, including mental, emotional, sexual, relational, and spiritual parts that may need support and healing.

I will also help you address any crises and ongoing issues you are struggling with.
