| עברית We can't say goodbye to a problem until we say hello to it. If you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, depressed, alone or hopeless, therapy is a place where it's OK to talk about the hard & confusing things, where you get to tell your truth as you see & feel it. If you experience shame, guilt, disappointment, regret, anger or resentment in your life, counselling gives you an opportunity to understand yourself better without being rushed or judged. Listening to all the parts of you that want to be heard can lead to a sense of relief, better relationships & sleep, feeling more grounded & living a more meaningful & authentic life
If you are ready to take a step toward healing, I can help you make positive changes to lifelong painful, frustrating or dissatisfying patterns. I use a relational strengths-based approach with elements of mindfulness, gestalt, CBT, social justice & psychodynamic approaches, helping you decrease anxiety, improve your mood & experience more confidence & hope.
You deserve to be heard & understood. You can build useful skills and learn valuable tools. I am here to offer you support on your journey to experiencing your life & relationships in a way that is more deeply satisfying to you. Contact me for a complimentary 15 minute consultation for questions & to discuss how I can help you move forward and feel better.
