Feeling sad or down? Exhausted? Overwhelmed? Irritated? Life is hard. Plain and simple. Situations and circumstances so often drive us in a direction we weren't prepared. So many of us have a hard time figuring out what to do in these moments. I have worked with college students, individuals in difficult relationships, medical workers, educators, mothers, teen girls, pregnant women, LGBTQ+ persons and so many others who find themselves in a place that feels confusing or dark. Negative mental health can come in forms that we didn't know existed - until we are there. Clients I work with just need to talk to an unbiased ear.
