Seeking therapy can be a difficult step to take, but you’re not alone! We all need someone to talk to, especially when life gets tough. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, feeling overwhelmed by life, or just need someone to talk to, I am here to provide support. I strive to create a reliable, judgment-free space where you can feel heard and understood.
You can’t change your past, but you can choose what happens next. I take an eclectic approach to therapy, focusing on you and your unique needs. Together we will tap into the strengths you already have, explore the impact if your history on your life, and identify tools that can help you cope and thrive. We will take it one day at a time.
Together we can address the past and start moving towards the future you’ve always hoped for. When you’re ready to start, I’m ready to help you! Reach out by phone or email to schedule a session!
