You’ve been hit hard by life, and it’s left you feeling stuck, like you’ve been slapped, kicked, or even punched by reality. Now, you’re staring at a growing gap between the life you want and where you are. You can see what life could be, but it feels like you’re trapped in your own head, spiraling further away from your goals. The things you used to enjoy don’t bring you the same happiness anymore, and you find yourself caught in patterns of behavior you wish you could break. You’re craving a change, but it feels like every step forward pulls you two steps back.
It’s time to step out of your head and back into your life! I use over 20 years of experience with approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Together, we’ll tackle anxiety, trauma and depression with practical tools to manage emotions, break free from stuck patterns, and reclaim your joy.
You deserve to live a life full of meaning and joy—the kind of life that truly matters to you. But getting there requires tools, a roadmap, and a space where you feel seen and heard. I know firsthand how hard life can hit, and with my experience, I can help you find your way forward. Let’s create the change you’ve been seeking.
