Is your mind spinning with worries and endless "to-do" lists? Are you critical of yourself and never quite feel good enough? If you have lost touch with who you really are or what you really want out of life, counseling can help you find yourself. If you are someone who usually takes care of everyone else, let me help you start taking care of yourself as well. My clients are regular, everyday women, couples and families who struggle with life's overwhelming issues: anxiety, depression, relationship issues, low self esteem, perfectionism, difficulty being assertive, past trauma, insecurities, people pleasing and life transitions.

Every day is the same. You wake up anxious, go to work on autopilot, and come home exhausted. Rinse and repeat. There must be more to life than this, you think. But you don’t know how to break free from this cycle. You see friends and coworkers breezing through life. They all appear blissfully unencumbered by the constant anxiety and depression that plagues you. The only conclusion you can draw is that you must be the problem. You decide there’s something inherently wrong with you that makes living with joy and ease impossible. So you resign yourself to your struggles. But sometimes you still wonder if there’s another way to live.

Tired of feeling anxious, on edge, overwhelmed and worrying all the time? Wish you could talk to someone that actually knows what you're going through? Life is hard enough, but when you're overwhelmed, it can feel unbearable. It can seem like each day is a race of to-do lists. And if you're like most people, prioritizing your mental health probably hasn't been at the top of the list. I help people learn to prioritize themselves and their needs one session at a time. We can discuss what has happened to you in the past, or we can focus on dealing with what is happening for you right now.
