The Scene: Day after day, year after year, you hope that things will change. Unfortunately, the motivation never really sticks, and eventually, you give up only to restart the never-ending cycle of disappointment . You've convinced yourself that you are not strong enough or smart enough. You don't understand why you can't be happy like everyone else. The questions continues to linger: How do I hold space for these thoughts? What do I do?

Have you ever found yourself feeling isolated, afraid to share your thoughts and experiences with others? Are you afraid of how your truth will be received; you may be concerned about stigma related to emotional and behavioral challenges or fearful that no one else can possibly understand your experiences. In my years of practice I have discovered that individuals can experience relief in finding someone with whom they trust to share their story, and can be empowered by doing so. It is my mission to offer each individual that I encounter a safe, comfortable and nonjudgmental environment to explore their experiences.
