It's okay to not be okay! Life can throw you off track and finding support can be a way of regaining your power and control. Whether you are struggling with a life transition, a relationship, parenthood, worried about your future, or too focused on your past...you deserve to be happy in your present! Often times we can feel overwhelmed and stressed. Knowing you are not alone in this, can help shape your mood and mindset.

Do you feel you are riding an emotional rollercoaster? Alternatively, do you feel like you are living in auto-pilot, going through the motions in life without finding much satisfaction? Or maybe you are experiencing anxiety, depression, difficulty coping with past traumas, relationship or work difficulties, or are just feeling stuck. Although we may find ourselves surrounded by supportive family and friends, we may still feel alone and isolated in our distress. Pain in life may be unavoidable, but you don’t need to go through it alone.

I specialize in loss and bereavement. My work provides strength to people who are managing a loss. You may have experienced the loss of a partner, child, or parent. You may have undergone a pregnancy loss or have infertility struggles. Or you are dealing with a shift in a relationship or change at work. Coping with these situations is challenging.

I will help guide you to understand your feelings and develop mechanisms to manage your experience.

Are you a parent noticing your child struggling at home, school, or with friends? Do you have a suspicion that your child might be on the autism spectrum or perhaps in the grip of a cycle of anxiety or anger? Does your child spend too much time online and not enough time connecting with others and the world around them? Perhaps you are not seeking support for a child, but instead for yourself. Many adults struggle with these very issues. All of these things can lead to a great amount of stress for children, adults, and their loved ones. I'm glad you're here and I'm here to help.

Are you feeling sad, anxious, lonely or stressed out? Are you having relationship problems? Do you think that your partner is not responsive to your needs? Are you tired of feeling this way? It seems that the time has come to try something new and seek professional help. You have probably tried working these problems out by yourself, hoping things will change. Maybe you have spoken with friends and family, but you still feel stuck.
