It's not always easy to seek support, and you've already taken a courageous step by considering therapy. You might be feeling overwhelmed with responsibilities, trapped by discouraging thoughts, or exhausted both mentally and emotionally. You might feel as though the important relationships in your life are just not working, that things you used to enjoy are falling flat. Many of my clients have struggled with low self-esteem, family conflict, trauma, and stress. I believe that entering therapy to improve emotional wellbeing and strengthen relationships can pave the way to a healthy, fulfilling life.
I offer in-person and remote sessions for teens and adults, specializing in depression, anxiety, and trauma. Using an integrative approach I can help you clarify your personal values, break through barriers to change, and build useful skills. In my work with teens I can support with school and behavioral challenges, self esteem, relationships, and more.
Even if you're not sure if my services are right for you or your child, or are unsure about starting therapy, please feel free to reach out for a free consultation and we can consider your options together. Making the decision to start therapy is both vulnerable and courageous. It can also feel overwhelming. Take a breath. You’re off to an amazing start.
