"Life be lif-ing" is the statement that comes to mind when I think about the ups and downs, we experience in our lifetime. Many of us can relate to the overwhelming feelings of sadness or the constant feeling of anxiety. With life can come trauma and pain, which can cause anger, bitterness, and an array of different emotions. You may even think to yourself, "I'm not good enough," "Something is wrong with me," or "I can't do hard things?" As a trauma-informed therapist who utilizes a mix of CBT and EMDR, I target these beliefs and feelings and provide various coping tools to help clients grow and be their best selves.

Overwhelmed and stressed by the thought of being "Superwoman" again? Time after time, you find yourself rescuing others and putting others before you. Leaving absolutely no time for yourself. Tired of constantly being the "Strong One?" Leaving yourself feeling drained and unfulfilled. At work, you go above and beyond but it goes unnoticed. At home, your days are filled with tasks that take up your entire day but you still feel unappreciated. Personally, you have told yourself that staying busy, overextending yourself and being the "Strong One" equals your success, value and worth.
