Counseling gives you an opportunity to manifest the life you deserve. It can be difficult to see beyond the behaviors and patterns holding you back when you’re stuck in unproductive cycles. In therapy, you can begin the process of healing so that you can effectively open yourself up to the right kind of relationships that will meet your needs. Throughout counseling, I will gently challenge you to dig deeper into your history and past wounds so that you can begin to see where certain obstacles originated. By untangling some of these elements, you can clarify what you want and need out of life. I am here to help you through this.

Do you have trouble prioritizing yourself or often feel guilty when doing so? Do you feel anxious, burnt out, or just stuck? Do you wish you could change some aspect of your life for the better? You deserve to feel better and to be empowered in creating the life you want for yourself. We can work together to get you where you want to be.
