I believe that finding and attending therapy is the best gift you can give yourself. Many of us seek relief from stress and anxiety through unhealthy behaviors - drinking, drugs, gambling, shopping, scrolling or gaming. Let's work together to understand what you'd like to change in your life and find skills for you to use, uncovering and working through events or feelings that cause you distress. Let's reduce anxiety, depression, substance abuse and loneliness and allow you to live as happily and fulfilled as possible. Contact me and set up a time to no-charge meet and talk during a 15-minute consultation.
I'm trained and experienced to help identify and treat what is causing distress; most common are substance abuse, feelings of anxiety and depression, which have proven treatments. For clients with OCD, PTSD, Addiction, and relationship issues, we'll access proven therapies. Let's talk about you and your goals and work towards you feeling better and happier.
When you decide to make an appointment for a consultation, be prepared with questions, and we'll speak about what's going on that is causing you to seek therapy. It is courageous and positive to pay attention to mental health. Let's talk!
