You've been thinking about this for some time. Waking up to your morning alarm and automatically dreading the day. It's exhausting to put on a brave face and pretend everything is OK, while inside you can't stop criticizing and doubting yourself. How agonizing it can be when you feel compelled to obsess over conversations or the worst moments of your life and sit in that pain. And when you do try to talk to someone they try to give you advice, "look on the bright side", or to try some yoga or something. It's so isolating when it seems like no one understands, so it feels easier to just keep trying to do this all on your own.
I get this is hard, but finding the right help doesn’t have to be. You deserve to feel supported, listened to, and accepted for who you are. You'll learn how current thinking patterns affect your behavior, and develop skills to more easily navigate triggers and unease. Let’s work together and collaboratively create a plan to get you where you want to be.
It’s time to work together and empower yourself to thrive. Feel more fulfilled and confident in your choices. Develop the resilience to easily navigate whatever life throws your way. Be your true, authentic self regardless of external pressures. You don’t have to do this alone – I’ll be with you every step of the way. Call me now for your free consultation.

I often use therapy techniques that aim to help one learn to recognize their inner voice/mindsets and address or respond to that voice with something more compassionate and realistic. I also teach skills in managing various mental health issues (for example: anxiety attacks) or specific life triggers. Along with providing information about how the brain works; and more so how yours is working.
