I work as a partner with clients to sift through the confusion that often comes with stress, depression, anxiety, and trauma. Thinking, feeling, and personal history connect in ways that form unique personal experiences. Through those experiences we form thoughts and use words that may not allow us to live life to our fullest potential. Today is the day you can start to change those words to improve your potential.

Sometimes the journey of life hasn't been what we envisioned. Perhaps it is full of anxiety, depression, or stress. Maybe you find yourself angry at everyone around you or angry with yourself. If so, asking for help shows strength not weakness. Contact me so that we can talk about how to find your inner strength and explore the avenues to help you find the life you truly desire.

Are you in a place where your life story has caused you to feel down, anxious, or confused about how to move forward? Maybe something that has just happened, or something you have dealt with for a long time has brought you to this place. Two people may come saying they are depressed, but I know how this feels is very different from person to person.

“Does life really have to be this hard?” For those of us who can’t seem to get out of our own heads, this is life’s big question. My passion is helping people figure out how to stop being their own worst enemy by controlling the overthinking, self-doubt, and inner critic that makes life harder than it has to be.

Many people were taught early on that emotions and feelings should not be outwardly discussed or displayed; others become aware of the stigma surrounding mental health issues as they mature. This can lead to a fear of being labeled as mentally ill, which often serves as an obstacle to seeking therapy. Unhealthy thought patterns surrounding mental health have led to ongoing, systemic problems that create a lack of public awareness and prioritization of mental health issues. However, change can occur on the individual level once a person makes the courageous decision to seek out counseling, which can provide them with a fresh start.
