On the surface you appear to have it all together, but deep down are struggling to feel confident in who you are & overwhelmed by all the balls you’re juggling. Constantly battling to manage the anxiety, depression, or reminders of the past that seem to set you off for no clear reason leaves you exhausted and on edge. Maybe you’ve spent a lifetime as the one to step up to the plate and handle more than your share of problems. Or maybe you learned early on it’s not okay to speak up when you’re struggling. Either way, you now feel disconnected from your own needs and the people you love, and can’t seem to fix it on your own.

Therapy is a great first step to improving one’s quality of life. Although we understand it’s benefit it can also be intimidating. Therapy isn’t about ‘fixing’ an individual, instead the focus is on empowerment and utilizing the skills the person possesses while developing other skills which may help support and maintain change. I believe a strong therapeutic alliance can assist anyone with facilitating the change they are seeking by developing a structure of exploration that alleviates the angst that comes with creating change in one’s life.
