Are you experiencing problems that are hard to deal with? Situations such as, the loss of a loved one, adult/childhood trauma, raising difficult children, or relationship conflict often increase stress and depression. Fear or uncertainty of the future can elevate anxiety to the point it impairs relationships and performance. Coping with circumstances, yourself, or others is not always easy. It can be overwhelming and complex. Counseling provides a safe place where you can process painful emotions. Together we can make the journey to healing and well-being.

Life is often defined by the habits that we have fostered since childhood without even being aware of them. When the painful consequences of those patterns outweighs the pain of learning something new, we look for solutions. The wounds we’ve experienced and the scars we carry with us have shaped our life, they hold meaning. Exploring the patterns that have developed as a result strengthens us. Taking time to invest in our healing process gives us insights that prepare and equip us to successfully navigate the conflicts and opportunities that we cannot avoid in the future.

I am currently accepting clients on my waitlist for remote therapy; I am certified in EMDR and my practice focuses on specializing in it. Much of my experience is in helping clients move forward after trauma.

You’re stuck and you just don't know what to do about it. It is hard enough to get out of bed everyday but choosing a path for your life seems impossible and drains you of the limited amount of energy and motivation that you have to begin with. Other people can complete daily tasks and chart a life course without overwhelming anxiety, so you conclude that obviously that means there must be something wrong with you. Maybe you can even pinpoint an exact situation or time in your life that sent you spiraling into anxiety, forcing you to become someone you do not even recognize.
