Change is always happening within us and around us…growth happens in the folds of change. I enjoy working with individuals who are wanting to create a life that is in alignment to their true selves. In the process people learn how to reconnect, accept and love their true selves by working through unresolved events, letting go of any expectations that no longer ring true and creating a life whole and empowered life. It’s a brave step to acknowledge you’d like to see a change in your life. Therapy should be a starting point, a safe place to discover truth, to achieve the life you want to be living.

Do you find yourself weighed down by unhelpful thought patterns? Are you not sleeping well, always feeling exhausted, and having a nagging sense of anxiety?

Whether you are facing the wonders of new love, planning a marriage, facing the loss of an infant, combating addictions, or foundering to connect in a relationship, there is help.

When we find ourselves overwhelmed by the circumstances of life, it can be difficult to know where to turn. Many of us have endured experiences that leave us feeling misunderstood or defeated. The pain we experience can lead to an overall sense of disconnectedness from others and from our very selves. There is great power in sharing our stories within an environment of empathy and safety, where we can be curious together about how the past has impacted the present. To feel understood can be the first pathway to healing.
