Life is hard and you don't know where to turn.
Are you an individual struggling with symptoms of ANXIETY or DEPRESSION. Are you experiencing sleepless nights, are you feeling, SAD, down, experiencing low energy or low mood and lack motivation. Are you WORRYING about your future, does it seem hopeless. Do you experience PANIC ATTACKS. You toss and turn at night and you're unable to shut off your brain. You worry about everything, all the time. You know you are better than this, but don't know how to MOTIVATE yourself to move forward. It feels like your symptoms are holding you hostage, and all you want to do, is live a better healthier life, but lack the skills to do so.

I believe that everyone has the potential to live a fulfilling life, and that I can help you identify and move past the barriers that stand in your way.
Barriers can get in the way of personal growth, and it can be challenging to identify, understand and move past them. Often, these obstacles are subtle and related to deeply ingrained patterns in relationships and behaviors.

There is no right way to life but my goal as your therapist is to help you figure out what’s right for you and help you figure out how to get there in the healthiest way possible.
People come to therapy for any number of reasons. Some have clear goals they would like to attain, others may just want to better themselves overall. You don’t need to have everything figured out in order to take the step toward improvement. More importantly, you don’t need to figure it out all by yourself.

Life changes can occur without a formal "heads up" whether it's starting something new like a career, school, or relationship or even parenting can feel daunting without the proper support.

If you're in the process of looking for a therapist you likely have been dealing with obstacles in your life that have felt insurmountable. Anxiety , depression, relationship troubles and questions of identity are all excessive burdens to an often already complicated, stressful life. Maybe you’ve tried to muscle through these issues, but ignoring them has not made them go away. Counseling can be a space where you can build skills that help manage these issues, where you can have a space that you don’t need to filter yourself, or maybe just to have a space where you feel supported.

Life Coaching Therapists

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
