Sometimes we need support to understand our thoughts and feelings, move through hard times and free ourselves from being stuck in unhealthy and / or productive situations. Sometimes we need honest and respectful feedback to learn, grow and be resilient. "Within you there is a stillness and a sanctuary, to which you can retreat at anytime." - Herman Hasse Let us find that place within you.
If you are interested in doing the work to improve your life, it would be my honor to support your efforts. I specialize in the following areas: Trauma healing, anxiety management, self esteem building, self awareness enhancement, depression management and personal growth and empowerment.
Are you ready? Have you been feeling stuck, scared, unheard, angry and or confused? Do you feel up to the challenge of personal growth and change? If so, It would be my honor to take the journey with you. I work with people who are surviving life's challenges and are learning to live the life they want and deserve.
