Depression, Anxiety Trauma, Stress, and other problems that rob you of your ability to enjoy life do not discriminate. Are you struggling to "Keep It All Together" while feeling the weight of your everyday problems? Are you "Tired of Being Tired? when trying to control your negative emotions and thoughts as you once did? Do you ask yourself the painful question, "What is wrong with me"? You feel alone, misunderstood and that no one really listens or understands how your issues affect you. People who care but feel powerless to help you might even say, " You Can Get Over It" in their efforts to help you.
Therapy is a process, and I can be your non-judgmental partner. In collaboration with me, you will learn how to better manage your feelings, emotions and behavior through the use of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Problem-Solving Treatment, Mindfulness,etc. I also assist adults who become are Visually Impaired/Blind.
Individuals who join me in therapy leave having hope that can once again they can take charge of their lives and emotions. Their minds and bodies no longer feel dysregulated. Once again they have a purpose in life, enjoy life, are better able to make decisions, and look forward to tomorrow. Life might not be perfect but it is better than it was yesterday.
