Attending a counseling session may seem intimidating, or you may be questioning how helpful it is going to be. Many of these thoughts and feelings are common for people before they start. Our lives sometimes change in ways that are out of our control. Working with a counselor can help you take back control of your life and thrive in the new normal that life has given you.

Life is hectic, and at times, it can be downright brutal! However, our culture rewards those who "push through" regardless of their circumstances. Before long, you're five miles to empty. You have no energy, you're not sleeping well, you're irritable, depressed, anxious, and at times emotionally detached from everything and everyone. My ideal client is someone who is looking to slow down and drown out the noises stifling their inner voice. Mourning loss, cultivating self-acceptance, creating useful internal dialogue, and establishing boundaries are possible when we choose to stop running on fumes and allow ourselves to be still.

Let's face it, you're stressed. Second guessing yourself, perhaps? Dealing with imposer syndrome? Are you finding it hard to navigate what life is bringing you? Are your relationships suffering? Handling these issues on your own can make them seem impossible to conquer. You don’t have to do it alone. I see counseling as a process in which we come to understand and trust one another, and work as a team to explore and define problem situations, develop future goals for an improved life, and work in a systematic fashion towards achieving those goals.
