Do you find yourself wondering if there has to be more to life than 'this,' whatever 'this' may be? Perhaps you find yourself plagued by thoughts, feelings, and images popping up at highly inopportune times (like bedtime or after social events). Our bodies can only handle so much stress before they start throwing out warning signs, most of which we've become quite adept at ignoring. Whether you are aware of the 'why' or source of these feelings or not, we don't have to live this way. We cannot escape the ups and downs of life, but we can learn to navigate those peaks and valleys without the constant worry of 'Am I doing life right?'
I can help by creating a non-judgmental, safe space to work together to ease and heal all manners of slings, arrows, (and the occasional boulder) thrown at us in life. The therapeutic relationship is one of the primary vehicles of change, and I strive to provide unconditional positive regard and an empathic ear for any and all thoughts and feelings.
