Chronic illness, grief, disordered eating, trauma, can cause extreme shifts in our minds and bodies, resulting in a variety of behaviors to cope and “protect us.”Not all the responses support an authentic value based life experience, nor are sustainable solutions for the trauma experienced.

Friends or family may give messages that you should 'just get over it', but some wounds cannot 'just' be forgotten or buried. They require more intentional work.

Anxiety and burnout can be unrelenting. What starts as a small, passing thought or feeling can quickly become overactive thoughts, reactive emotions, racing heartbeat, restlessness, insomnia, mood swings, and more.

I help clients identify anxious thoughts and behavior patterns, engaging them as an active participant in their own mental health healing. I encourage reflection and awareness, teach coping strategies, and promote accountability for emotional well-being.
