Are you struggling to manage a pattern of uncomfortable emotions that stem from a difficult life situation you were unable to resolve? You may feel stuck and not yet able to understand the root cause of these emotional challenges, how they are impacting you and your relationships, or how to move forward in your life.

You need someone who can give you patient guidance to help you navigate healing. You deserve empathic understanding as you become the most bad-ass version of yourself. Let me humbly help you.

Why go to therapy? You might seek therapy when experiencing emotional pain or stress, even confusion about a situation or about yourself. Life challenges can pile up and seem overwhelming.

Maybe you feel all alone with your concerns—it’s normal to feel that way. Therapy offers a place of understanding and acceptance, a place to be heard, and for you to feel safe with all of your feelings and thoughts, even those that you might feel are strange.
