You ARE good enough!
Are you an elite athlete or high-performer struggling with anxiety, depression or perfectionism? Do you feel like you are buckling under the pressure(s)? Are your relationships affected? Do you have difficulty communicating? Are you struggling with motivation? What about grief or loss, or traumatic experiences?
How about any/all of the above?!
Maybe you have a trauma history; maybe you don't. But therapy isn't just for people who are "messed up"! Perhaps you just need someone unbiased to talk to, or to help you develop better coping mechanisms (other than substance use)!
If this is you, I'm here for it!
I'll keep it 100% real: I'm professional, but I curse (a lot)! I offer an empathic, non-judgmental ear, BUT I'm also not afraid to call you out on your bullshit. If you're looking for a quiet therapist who simply nods and murmurs, I'm NOT the one for you. My face usually says too much! BUT if you're looking for someone to TRULY care about you, I'm your girl!
I know the thought of attending therapy can be scary, but let me show you that therapy really doesn't have to be all that different from a deep conversation with a trusted friend (but one with education and the proper training to help you!). Message me and let me help you rewrite your next chapters. You've got this! Now let's get our asses to work!
