At some point in our lives, many of us look around and realize we no longer like the life we've built - or maybe even who we've become while living it.

Therapy creates change by examining the experiences and beliefs that contribute to feeling stuck and make it harder to hear our own, often elusive, inner knowing. I love working with clients to address the issues holding them back so they can create a life and self that excites them again.
