Everyone experiences challenges at one point in their lives or can feel overwhelmed by an ongoing issue, and we all have our own lessons to learn. Seeking help and support is often the first steps towards feeling better and recovery; however, it can be hard to know how to start or where to turn to. It can be strangely intimate to be open about mental health struggles, but having even one person to talk to can be an enormous relief. I provide a safe, warm, and inclusive environment helping people overcome such challenges and work towards a resolution and personal growth.
