Hello and thank you for viewing my profile. I know there must be a million thoughts running through your brain right now. Sometimes our thoughts can feel like they are on an out-of-control highway or racetrack. We may not know which direction to take, which flag to fly or which repair to begin with. I want to congratulate you on taking that first step: researching who can you talk to. Now, let's chat and figure out what our next steps are. Remember; if you're not speaking it, you're storing it and that gets heavy.

Life can be a tumultuous journey, full of ups, downs, and unpredictable twists and turns. Even when life begins to settle, our own minds can create upheaval and send us spinning into chaos once again. It can be like this for all of us, and no one should have to trudge through it on their own. At it's worst, we can feel completely broken, stuck, ashamed, lost, and we suffer. You are not alone, and you no longer need to feel alone in your struggle. Whether it is life transitions, relationships, the past, depression, anxieties, or whatever has you stuck or spiraling at this time, you have come to the right place.

Counseling is an effective way to help us navigate and cope with the expected and unexpected; increase our self-awareness and understanding; heal and get unstuck; and let go and move forward. As an individual, who like everyone else, experiences life's ups and downs and who engages in personal growth and self-care, I know through my personal and professional experiences that people, like you, can make changes; heal and recover; and improve and embrace your life.

I believe that trauma and adversity effect and change the mind, the body and the spirit, and too often therapy neglects to look deeply enough at all three of these areas. I provide therapy with a holistic approach. We will look at all aspects of your life both past and present and use practical, proven effective treatment. I also believe critical to treatment is feeling accepted and cared for by your provider. Please call Sanctuary Counseling at 716-291-0059 and speak with our administrative assistant to make an appointment.

When we're at our best we can take on new challenges with enthusiasm rather than fear. Bruce Lee said, "You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip or it can crash. Be like water my friend." Counseling is one way you can improve you're ability to face challenges or "be like water..." Together we can enhance your strengths to allow you to experience the changes you want to see in your life. Now providing telehealth only HIPAA-compliant video appointments.

All of us reach points in our lives when we feel overwhelmed, stressed, or stuck. It is easy sometimes to feel discouraged and alone. In those moments, we may lose our ability to feel joy, to see our strengths, to feel connection, and live to our full potential. This is when counseling can provide the safety and support we all need to confront our personal challenges and rediscover the beauty and resilience of our own hearts.
