Hi, I'm Sydnee! Are you looking to find ways to make life a little easier or learn more about yourself? I work with teens, young adults, and adults to help them grow in the areas they struggle with the most. We will spend our first session getting to know each other and figuring out how we can work best together. After that, our sessions are led by you; what's on your mind, what you're struggling with, and what you need from me.

Imagine feeling truly connected, experiencing genuine intimacy, and proud of your achievements. If you're a high achiever dealing with perfectionism, loneliness, or past abuse, I understand the weight you carry. You might be mourning a loss or grieving from chronic illness, and despite your accomplishments, something feels missing. You need to rebuild trust and intimacy in your relationships, process past trauma, and heal deep wounds. Your goal is to fully feel your emotions, reconnect with yourself, and find joy in everyday life. If this describes you, know that you are not alone. Remember, there is a path to healing!

One of the scariest and bravest things we can do is ask for help. For some that may be in choosing a career path, for others a move, or a divorce. For my clients, it's a desire to know who they really are. Sometimes we've forgotten who we are, lost our sense of purpose, or lived so long in pain that we have developed advanced coping to survive in unhealthy relationships. What we've found together is that structured support, clarity on values, and encouragement to heal are usually all that's needed. No matter what changes you decide to make, the best ones are always those that honor your worth and value.

Life is a journey and sometimes we may need a little help along the way. On life's journey we may experience anxiety, depression, grief or trauma which me may lead us feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, fearful or angry. Sometime we may need someone to walk beside us on the journey to assist in overcoming and healing from life's ups and downs.

Women seek me out to help build boundaries and self-confidence while trying to manage the stressors of life. Most of the women that come to see me believe, if they can "just do a little better" then they will eventually find the perfect balance; only to find, the amount of effort they put in doesn't change their outcome. I also work with people in the LGBTQ+ community and people that love someone in the LGBTQ+ community struggling to adapt to the changes happening in their life. Ultimately, maybe you're just seeking a sense of self or belonging while dealing with emotional consequences of being rejected by toxic mainstream culture.
