Sometimes normal life challenges like changing careers, becoming a parent or changes in relationships can contribute to difficult emotions and result in behavior that make us feel stuck, unproductive or even self-destructive.

I can provide the support and guidance needed to help you explore, develop awareness and make informed decisions you can feel confident about.
