Stress is everywhere, especially with the challenges of the last few years. You might not be feeling like yourself. You could be feeling off, sluggish, misdirected, or overwhelmed. You could be looking to make some shifts in your life, and hopefully grow following a potentially difficult stretch. Change is never easy, but you may be searching for it. You feel it's time for you to set some boundaries, figure out what you truly need, and put ideas into action. Starting therapy can be challenging, and I applaud anyone who takes that step to move forward and give it a try.

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.
