There are times where life can feel overwhelming but, you're not alone. You’re not alone in feeling weighed down by your past experiences, present responsibilities or future decisions. Whether you feel pressure from the expectations of society, others or yourself. The pressures of life can leave us feeling unsure of what direction to go in, feeling isolated, anxious, unmotivated, and unsatisfied; when what we want is to feel confident, empowered, and secure in the way we move through our lives.

In this way I will direct them in learning what obstacles they create for themselves and how to use their abilities to evoke change. My preference is in-person, but am willing to do Telehealth, as needed, after initial in-person assessment, in-person offers valuable energy exchange necessary for the human connection between therapist and client.

Sitting with oneself, whether in individual, couple or family therapy, is not easy and I see my clients as courageous and hopeful for taking this step. Sometimes therapy is healing and transformational, other times it is simply a space to take some deep breaths. Either way, my practice is always client-centered and compassion-based, being present with you in whatever space you are in. My hope in working with me is that you develop a sense of self-compassion and a strength-based lens to view yourself and your relationships through.

We can accumulate distress, emotional pain, fear and worry to the point where we can no longer function in our daily lives, at work or in our relationships with one another. Yet we all have the mechanisms and capacity to expend our distress, heal our pain and master a sense of internal safety and calm.
