Therapists in Lake Mary, FL

Life can be dysfunctional and although many of us learn how to function in this dysfunction there are times where it may become too much to walk in alone. Your life seems filled with constant thoughts of "I should have: said that differently, told them how I felt, spoke up for myself". You struggle with fears of judgment and expectations. Somedays it may seem like an impossible mission to get out of bed, shower, feed yourself or socialize with others. You struggle with persistent irrational thoughts that you are aware of but can't seem to make them stop.

The new year is upon us! Life can be stressful and overwhelming to ​say the least, especially around the holidays and new year. Do you feel broken, stuck, or trapped right now? Have you lost hope of ever having the life you dreamed of before the path you were on was changed. Ever feel like every time you take a step forward, life knocks you down a flight of stairs? Now not only do you have to get back up, but the next step forward is uphill. You may be experiencing difficulty adjusting to the changes in your life. This can be exhausting and very tempting to give up on those dreams you had.

Navigating mid-life brings on a unique set of challenges for women. We often feel overwhelmed and anxious as we face big life changes and shifts in our relationships. Many of us begin questioning our beliefs or searching for a new connection to life and spirituality. We commonly struggle with things like self-esteem, grief, or finding our identity. Chronic health problems can also arise as the stress in our bodies signals the need for attention and care. If any of this feels familiar, you are not alone!

COUPLES, FAMILIES and LGBTQ. I want you to have the interpersonal relationships you deserve and that you have always dreamed of. My approach to counseling is relational in it's focus. By nature humans are relational and interdependent. There is nothing more painful than broken or harmful relationships. While not every relationship can or should be mended, the pain caused can be felt for years to come and exaggerate or cause many forms of mental illness to include anxiety and depression.
