I believe that how we interact with the world and people around us is the same way that we interact with ourselves. If we view the world and other people as unsafe, we generally view our existence as unsafe. My goals as a therapist are to collaboratively aid my clients in their journey to rediscover themselves, to find a more meaningful and purpose driven life, and to reduce the symptoms of existential dread and anxieties. I utilize my experience as a therapist, yoga teacher, hypnotherapist, and all around nerd to holistically support my clients on their quest towards re-self discovery.

One of the greatest pains in life is not knowing. Not knowing how to deal with a challenging situation, such as a troubled relationship, a traumatic experience, or unexplained mood swings. Maybe you simply want help, for yourself or someone you know who may be dealing with a difficult life transition. Well, there is one thing you should know, there's HOPE (not just a cliché). As the owner of HOPE's Corner Counseling I believe in providing the most up-to-date counseling strategies to meet your unique needs & rebuild your HOPE.

Are you feeling disconnected from yourself? Many women find themselves struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety, or the sense that they're always wearing a mask to meet others' expectations. You might be navigating people-pleasing tendencies, or feeling like you’re “too sensitive” or “too emotional” for the world around you. These feelings often stem from deeper wounds—whether it’s trauma, unmet emotional needs, or life transitions like motherhood or career shifts.

Whether from childhood sexual abuse, debilitating chronic pain or other life experiences, oftentimes we experience deep feelings of not being "enough" that shows up in different ways such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, & much more. Regardless of our identities, a lot of us are taught that vulnerability is a weakness and self-silencing “should be” prioritized. Avoidance of emotional pain can then become very natural whether conscious or not, but is costly to your physical & mental well-being. Want to reclaim your life from Anxiety, Pain, Illness, & Depression? Are you ready to heal your relationship with Food & Your Body?
