As a therapist, I believe we all long for connection. It is primal and in our DNA. However, in order to feel a connection, we need to feel a sense of safety first. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples who are experiencing a lack of connection, attachment wounds, or grief/loss and are seeking help with hopes of increasing the effectiveness of their communication, boundaries, and connection whether that means with themselves or with others.
I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where each individual can feel seen and heard. Sometimes we can feel stuck or in a rut. Life is hard and unfortunately, we do not get a manual to help us navigate those difficult times. My clients will learn how to navigate daily stressors and develop a care plan that will encourage self-care and wellness.
I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help not knowing the results that may come out of it. I would encourage you to take a chance and try something new. You never know what will work until you try, right? If my profile resonates with you, feel free to reach out to me and we can schedule a free consultation to see if it's the right fit.
