You've lost interest in things you used to enjoy and find yourself preferring to stay home and isolate because it just feels easier. Maybe you've started having anxiety and panic attacks. Now you can't even sleep well and have started to engage in self destructive thoughts and behaviours. You just don’t feel like yourself.

Everyone needs help sometimes. I am here to help. Individual therapy is a personal opportunity to receive support and experience growth during challenging times or to work through a personal/mental health issue. As your therapist I can be your sounding board, teacher, coach, mirror, advocate, analyst, or problem solver, all depending on your desired outcome. Individual therapy can inspire change or improve the quality of your life. Therapy does not necessarily make problems disappear, but it equips you with the tools needed to cope with things more appropriately and confidently.
