It's easy to get swept away by the daily struggle and getting back on track can be difficult. Something doesn’t feel right. Maybe you feel like you’re going through the motions or maybe you feel more on edge lately. You could have had these feelings for ages or for days. Even simply thinking about change can feel overwhelming. You want to feel better, but you don’t know where or how to start. You need help, and I’m here to help you.
Whether you’re overwhelmed in your day-to-day, suffering from a loss, or simply trying to make sense of life, I can help. I often work with grief, life transitions, depression, and relationship issues. I provide a supportive space for individuals of all ages to explore their challenges and find a path forward.
In our work together, you’ll find a safe, non-judgmental environment to unravel old patterns and gain new insights. I want to work with you to find what tools will best help you on your journey. My door is open for when you’re ready to get started on a better tomorrow.
