Life is often messy, overwhelming, and confusing! We can find ourselves unsure of who we are or what we really want. This can leave us feeling unfulfilled, worried, sad, or disengaged. Perhaps you are floating through each day doing everything you're 'supposed' to do but still feeling down. Maybe you are going through a challenge like grief, trauma, or a life transition that results in anxiety. You deserve to heal, fully engage life, and feel optimistic about the future. As we work together in your counseling journey, we will explore who you are, what you want in life, and how you can achieve your goals.

I believe healing occurs when we are seen for who we are, when our stories are believed, and when our pain is heard by a compassionate witness in an environment that is safe. I believe that we have each been created with the innate capacity to heal our own pain. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you bravely discover this capacity within yourself. You are not your worst moments. You are a mosaic of all the beautiful parts inside of you. “We share our stories with those who have earned the right to hear them.” -Brene Brown
