Life is hard, it can feel like there are more plates spinning than you can count. The uncertainty of which plate is going to crash first and the feelings that follow that can be overwhelming, sad, frustrating, the list goes on. Feeling like you have control, the ability to slow those plates and see which even belonged to you can be life changing. Some days we will be very serious and other days we will use lots of humor and wit, it is all about where you are that day.
Working through challenges with clients in regard to anxiety, depression, life changes, grief and transitions is rewarding. Your feelings are valid, and you’re allowed to feel them all. I will hold space so you’re able to express yourself without feeling guilty or worrying what others around you think.
Therapy is hard work, and it is not a one size fits all. I believe in honesty, dignity and respect as core values. My goal is to meet you where you are and assist you with moving to where you want to be. Reaching out is often a hard step, so congratulations for making that first big step! Call me today for a 15-minute consultation.
