We all experience difficulties or situations that may feel overwhelming and leave us questioning ourselves or relationships. Finding the right support is a difficult task and can oftentimes be a daunting experience. Whether you are overwhelmed with stress and anxiety, experiencing low mood, battling with self-esteem and identity, or you just need someone to talk to- I aim to create a safe emotional space to help you explore and navigate the difficulties life can hand us. I believe we all have the ability to overcome difficulties and foster self empowerment and healthier relationships that foster resilience and skills to cope.
My process includes integrative and collaborative approaches aimed to meet you where you are at with respect, integrity, and warmth. I aim to support individuals and couples to feel validated and supported to process your thoughts/emotions, to gain awareness of self/relationship, and to obtain meaningful growth via development of coping strategies.
My goal in practice is to create a safe space in which you feel safe, heard, and supported whether you are seeking individual or couples therapy. Feel free to contact me for a free 15 minute consultation to discuss how I may be able to support you in your journey of healing.
