Do you have goals of being a better partner, parent, student or boss but aren't seeing the progress you'd like? Are you overwhelmed by life transitions or exhausted by your relationships? Are you acting in ways that are confusing and self sabotaging despite having the best intentions? Would you like help communicating your needs, setting boundaries and using healthy coping strategies? Maybe you'd like to improve on managing daily anxiety and stress or would like help with your grief or unresolved trauma. When life feel harder than it "should" I can support you in understanding your issues and move forward in achieving your goals.
My specialties are in relationships, anxiety, parenting, ADHD, grief, stress, burnout, and life/work transitions. I offer a safe space in which to you can clarify your feelings, define goals and develop the skills you need to feel empowered and resourced on your journey. Our work will involve a variety of therapeutic modalities most suited to your needs.
Difficult life experiences, relationships, problems and decisions can feel overwhelming and impossible at times. I believe that with the right support, we can learn to navigate life successfully and make the changes we desire. As a starting point, please reach out to me and we can talk about the ways I can help you achieve your goals in therapy.
