Whether its difficulty navigating a toxic work environment, dealing with a difficult boss, experiencing marriage or relationship problems, or feeling lost and alone you may need to evaluate what your needs or wants are. Your mind and body is telling you something if you are feeling stressed, feeling sad, have problems sleeping, feeling lonely even in a crowd, or getting angry over the littlest thing, its letting you know change needs to happen. We all struggle at times with trying to navigate life and I believe that we all could benefit from support. Reaching out for help is the key to working towards a healthier way of living.

No matter what you do, you can’t seem to leave the pain of your childhood in the past. You have spent your 20s and 30s busy creating your own life - children, careers, relationships, marriage. But your past pain keeps cropping up in the most frustrating ways. You thought you were over it, that you worked it all out, but you were wrong. That hurt, that pain, it shows up in your marriage, your relationship with your children, and your career. You can’t seem to get away from it. The usual ways of coping just don’t work anymore. You want a better way.

We all know how hard it can be going through life day by day. Sometimes it can be changes in work, relationships, and life direction. Other times it might be coping with traumatic life events. Processing different emotions and transitioning through life's changes may sometimes feel overwhelming, but thats okay! No one can deal with all of life's obstacles alone, and that's where I step in to help. I'm here to provide a comfortable space where you can vent, cry and laugh while exploring your different emotions.
