It pays to talk to someone you can trust and who would not use what you say against you. Life has many challenges in store for everyone. Some, we can prevent, and others we can only manage them. This is particularly so with parents who are going through immense struggles as a result of parenting, work, and relationship with their spouses and other family members. You may be doing the right thing but not sure. That feeling of "lost control" suggest that you need to have a deeper view of the problem to regain control. Come talk to me.

Do you secretly doubt your self-worth as you grieve? We may sometimes feel exhausted from figuring out how to live this life with value. Let’s quiet the internal noise and remove the old beliefs and the attachments that have kept us trapped and joyless. Let’s put down the weight of what we have accumulated from what others have piled into our lives, telling us what we want and need. You have taken the time to heal your traumas and pain but you may find yourself drifting daily. How about creating a vision for the rest of the life that you have left on this side of heaven? If this feels new and frightening, we can help with that.

Sometimes we feel stuck, lost or overwhelmed and don't know what to do. Perhaps you yearn to be more resilient, to have a better sense of who you are, and more ideas about what to do about the things interfering with your life, goals, and relationships. Come find new ways to see and approach things. You have more strengths than you may realize. You can grow and things can change this year. I especially enjoy supporting adolescents, college-age, and LGBTQIA clients and people at turning points in their lives.

Daily tasks that once were done without thinking may suddenly feel like a challenge. Does your child lack motivation? Is your child struggling with low self-esteem issues? Are they going through big life changes like starting school, peer conflict, or dealing with loss, death or divorce? I'm happy to help!

Do you struggle with communication, setting boundaries, or expressing your feelings? Are you feeling unmotivated, overwhelmed, or anxious? Do you bottle your emotions? Strong negative emotions can get in the way of the person you want to be and limit your life. You may find yourself spending more time dwelling on painful thoughts or memories that leave you filled with distress, self-doubt, and insecurity. It may also be that you worry about the future or perhaps your emotions or behavior have cost you relationships or opportunities.
