One of the most radical things we can do in this life is to take care of ourselves. Which is not something we are necessarily taught to do, and well, when we start to do it there can be some resistance. It’s taken a lot for you to get to this point, and I am so glad you found your way here. Whether this is the first time you are seeking therapy or if you have been around the block a time or two, there is a place for you here. One thing is for certain, things are not quite how you would like for them to be, and that is where therapy comes in!

Each of us has our own unique path and challenges to navigate in this life. Many of us struggle to find the freedom to live out our truth and to follow our hearts because we are bound by societal and/or familial conditioning and programming that pressures us to fit into a certain mold that may not align with who we are and what we find to be true. This binding can often show up as anxiety or unhappiness, and many of us have trauma that continues to live in our bodies influencing the ways in which we react to what we encounter in life. We can work together to understand and alleviate what is keeping you from being more free.

Women and pre-marital couples have unique reasons for seeking counseling. You may be a woman dealing with the stressors from being a wife, a mom, a professional; you've forgotten who you are or even how to find balance. You've found yourself overwhelmed with anxiety and struggling in your relationships. Perhaps your relationship is new and you want to focus on it before taking the next step or find you're caught up in negative cycles of communication and need help identifying new cycles to rekindle your love for your spouse. Regardless of who you are, your desire to have a sense of self and security is a priority.
