Counseling in a safe space to identify and explore the things that keep you stuck and prevent you from living the life you want to lead. A safe non-judgmental environment will allow you to find or enhance motivation for change and identify choices that may have been overlooked or seen as not being possible in the past. Many people entering therapy are overwhelmed or find themselves at a crossroads in life when they need to adapt to new circumstances or adjust to uncomfortable changes in employment, relationships, or loss.

I take a very non-judgmental approach to therapy preferring to work alongside the client and conjointly focusing on the best treatment modalities to fit their needs. I move at the pace that is best for them, taking an eclectic approach to really tailor treatment to the specific individual. My ideal client is anyone pursuing the very best life that they can achieve.

You’ve been holding everything in & keeping it together, but have hit your limit. You’d love to feel free, but instead feel stressed, frustrated, overwhelmed & lost. It’s hard to relax.

You provide support & encouragement to others, but not yourself. Despite your own successes, you question if you’re good enough, can handle it all, prepared, or doing things “right." You’d love to feel seen & heard, & need space, support & guidance to help you grow & transform.
