With over a decade of experience working with adults and teenagers in various clinical settings, I’ve helped clients to work through issues related to anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, school problems, relationships, career/job stress, and life transitions.
Have you ever gotten to a point where you felt overwhelmed with life? It seems like the more you push through juggling school, work, family, relationships and/or life transitions thinking you can handle it the more you find yourself in a cycle like running in a hamster wheel feeling stuck. Sometimes you might feel like you’re just going through the motion in quiet desperation while wishing you knew what to do to emotionally handle life stressors better. You may even talk to friends, family, or distract yourself by staying busy but yet it’s not enough.

Have you tried therapy before but it didn't really stick? A lot of people think what they're dealing with is anxiety or depression, because that is what it feels like to them. But if you also notice recurring emotional patterns, like feeling rejected, abandoned, not good enough; or behavioral patterns like pouring yourself into work or hobby, avoiding something or someone, or striving for perfection and people pleasing, these could be signs that common therapies for anxiety and depression just aren't going to cut it for you.
