Have you been feeling "stuck" lately? Do you find yourself needing to make change, but need a push or some help finding the right direction? Oftentimes the overwhelming tasks needed to take charge of a given situation leave us feeling anxious, sad, confused, fearful, etc. Learning new ways to approach any situation will help you to feel more balanced and at peace. Now is your time to do something for YOU.
Nothing will change, until you change something! I provide an approach in which you and I are equally important to the learning environment. I have worked with various age groups including but not limited to teens, children, and adults utilizing individual, family, and group interventions.
Utilizing a more holistic approach, this treatment process is built together. With social media and the fast-paced nature of the world, connection and feeling heard can be difficult to find. Providing a safe space and highlighting your strengths we will work together to move forward from the past.
