I provide support, and preventative maintenance for individuals with anxiety/stress, mood disorders, depression, PTSD, grief and loss, family issues, severe and persistent mental illness, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, learning disabilities, and child, adolescent and teen challenges.
Are you feeling anxious, hopeless, frustrated, or stuck in your current life chapter? We all try our best to navigate the challenges life throws at us, but sometimes it can become too much to bear on our own. Moving through life, these issues can accumulate leading to unresolved trauma that leaks into all facets of who we are. Working through current and previous life stressors and traumas can help to find balance and peace in the present. We all need support at times through the tremendous difficulties life has a way of throwing at us.

Relationships may suffer and facing each day can feel overwhelming! In therapy, we work on restoring relationships. We work together to understand why you do what you do - then, change will come! Destructive patterns can be conquered. Trauma, stress, conflict, and great loss CAN lose their power.
