I am here for those of you feeling lost, overwhelmed, defeated, or unsure how to move forward. Maybe you're feeling anxious or depressed and you've lost touch with the part of you that felt joy or purpose in life. Maybe you experienced a traumatic event and need help processing this and moving forward. Or maybe you're experiencing some big life transitions and you don't feel emotionally prepared to handle them. These are all common human experiences that are worthy of confronting and working through to find peace and satisfaction.

We all struggle, and it’s normal to want to avoid difficult feelings. However, learning to be with and understand, even our most dreaded emotions, is a necessary step towards healing and growth. This isn’t something you have to do alone and having someone outside of your personal circle to support, validate, and understand your experience can be invaluable. I am experienced in working with individuals struggling with various mental health concerns but am less interested in the label and most concerned with understanding your experience in order to pinpoint root causes of what is causing discomfort.

This is a problem solving practice. From inside a painful situation, it is often very hard to understand what is going wrong, or how to move forward when you may not really have a sense of where forward is right now. Sometimes, when we think we can't do things differently, it's just that we don't know how. That doesn't mean that every problem has a quick fix, but once you see it for what it is, there is usually help. Things can be better.

The hurts of the past are making it harder and harder to function let alone find happiness. The present has lost meaning and things you used to love no longer satisfy. You fear your best days are behind you. You long for something else, something more but don't know what it is or how to get there. You feel you will never measure up. You fear you will never be enough.

Psychology Today does not use a secure form of communication. Please reach out directly at www.centerforactualizedcounseling.com. Have you fallen off track, not quite feeling yourself? Do you feel burnt out...crispy even? The tools that you’ve turned to in the past to get through it aren’t working, but certainly not for a lack of trying? Sometimes life circumstances, a stressful job, a new environment, or even just a big shift in our lives leaves us feeling stuck. I can work with you so that we can better understand the WHY but also work with you to figure out the HOW we get you back on track. Let's get started.

We all face and manage many problems and challenges in our lives, but sometimes we feel stuck or confused about what steps to take. A therapist can be a thoughtful companion as you explore how and why you are feeling dissatisfied or lost. A therapist can also be an experienced guide as you make changes to improve your life.
