Sometimes life can be like a roller coaster riding. One minute it seems like you are going up to the top of the world.

I work with individuals, groups, couples, and adolescents.

You always try to do the right thing, but somehow, people don't appreciate it. When you try to help, they might even blame you! You put your needs aside to take care of others, and no one is there to take care of you, but you don't say anything. Maybe you cry when no one is there. And then you put your smile back on and turn back into the person they need you to be. One day, it all gets to be too much, and you don't know what to do. So you come see me.

Embarking on the journey of small business ownership is often filled with excitement, promise, and the allure of independence. It's a path that holds the potential to fulfill lifelong dreams and aspirations. However, the reality of running a business can sometimes be different from the initial expectations. Many small business owners face a multitude of challenges that can leave them feeling overwhelmed and vulnerable. The constant anxiety about sustaining profits, the nagging imposter syndrome, and the relentless pressure to stand out can all contribute to a sense of being stuck.

I am honored to be able to work with adolescents and adults to provide them with contained space where they can work through obstacles that hinder inner strength and wisdom. For many of us, psychopathology can be traced back to trauma or relational issues of the past. I never tire of exploring this material with my brave clients.
