Sometimes there is a concrete event or change we can point to as the cause for increased anxiety, depressed mood or relationship conflicts, but other times we just feel “off” and unsure of how to get back to our sense of control or centeredness. For many people, they are living in “survival mode” – on a constant hamster-wheel trying to stay productive & avoid unpleasant feelings OR in total shutdown. However, over time that wears us down, and we need a little unbiased support to work through our inner struggles or past injuries that prevent us from living a life of contentment.

We all experience struggles, challenges and the highs and lows of daily life.

As a therapist, I have helped many people achieve greater peace of mind, decrease feelings of stress, and develop more self-compassion. Life is not always easy. In fact, it can feel quite overwhelming when you don't know where to go or who to turn to for help.

Together we will figure out the rest of the journey at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

We all encounter wounds from different phases of life, relationships and traumas. However, we aren’t always taught the tools that offer us resolution and healing. We are conditioned to be victimized by this pain rather than transforming it for a greater purpose. I believe when we integrate using our gifts towards life’s challenges and fully embrace the darkness within us, we can use it to our advantage, turning our pain into purpose.
