You seemingly have it all together. Externally, you appear hard working, ambitious, high-achieving and organized, but internally, you’re overwhelmed and paralyzed by racing thoughts, perfectionism, fear of failure and self-doubt. Maintaining impossible standards and casting aside your needs to please others is beginning to take a toll and you're exhausted. The never ending “what if” scenarios consuming your mind leave you feeling drained and dreading the days ahead. Your worry causes sleepless nights, irritability and emotional instability which impact your energy levels, self-esteem, school or work performance, and relationships.
My therapeutic style bridges the knowledge of a counselor with the comfort of a friend in a relaxed environment. I love inserting pop culture references and humor into our sessions. I welcome you as you are and encourage you to show up as your authentic self. I can promise I'll show up the same way for you as we work through your concerns together.
I know how overwhelming it can be to reach out for help or let your guard down. My personal therapeutic journey for anxiety combined with my education as a counselor inspired my private practice. Relief is possible to achieve. If you're motivated and ready to make a change in your life - I would love to help you achieve your goals.
