One of my favorite quotes from Brene Brown is "Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen". Today, more than ever, we are seeing a staggering amount of anxiety, depression and trauma in our society. It is so important for people of any age to learn skills and build resilience to cope with these challenges.Therapy provides that space for clients to work on this and to master the skills and to be empowered. I proved a warm and gentle environment for my clients to do so.

I enjoy working with young adults and people who are in transitional times in their lives. Going from supported environments like college or university into the working world is sometimes an overwhelming shift for young people. I think that moving to a new city or starting a new job can lead to feelings of loneliness, depression and anxiety. There are many life changes for people in their 20's and 30's. Maybe the career you thought you wanted is not fulfilling or the relationship you invested time and energy in is not going in the direction you hoped.
