You might be feeling like you're stuck in a whirlwind of emotions, unsure of how to find solid ground. It’s like being caught in a storm where everything feels chaotic and out of control. I understand that this can be exhausting and discouraging, making even the smallest tasks seem insurmountable.

I work with individuals who are grappling with these intense feelings, helping them make sense of what they're experiencing and giving them practical tools to manage these emotions. We take it one step at a time, facing the things that feel daunting together.

The goal is to help you recognize that even though things feel overwhelming now, there are ways to navigate through this storm and regain a sense of stability and hope. My aim is to support you in learning how to handle these emotions so that you can start to feel more grounded and confident in your daily life.
