VERY FEW MORNING APPTs AVAILABLE* Oftentimes, people either are unaware of symptoms that arise over time or are told to simply get over them. I offer people the opportunity to be themselves, while also giving them the responsibility to work towards realistic goals they set. I have a history of working with both youth and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, adjustment, relationship issues, psychiatric issues, child/ parenting issues, grief, mandated care and co-occurring disorders. Together, we can address those struggles and work towards a better tomorrow.

Sometimes life becomes overwhelming due to trauma, increased anxiety and depressive symptoms leading us to believe there is something inherently wrong with us. We sometimes forget that we have the power to change our situation and circumstances. My goal is not to just treat the symptoms, but rather uncover the underlying root cause that triggered these symptoms and empower you to move forward in a positive direction. Treating the symptoms alone may cause the issue to present itself again.

The ins/outs and highs/lows of life can be draining and in certain circumstances leave lasting imprints. In the moment, your main goal may be to just get through it. Yet, as time passes you may experience feeling imbalanced, lost or on edge. You may have also learned that you can't “trust people” or may feel apprehensive towards “getting help”. You may even tell yourself "I got this" or "It's not a big deal". You begin experiencing what I like to call "suffering in silence". While I am a firm believer in your capability in handling day to day challenges on your own, my message is to highlight that you do not have to.
