I help clients struggling with connections, be it within themselves manifesting in low self-esteem/self-confidence or anxiety, or with others such as family, friends, or partners. Collaboratively, we uncover their wants, needs, and desired life. Most of my clients have been able to connect with themselves and those around them to start uncovering and living their dreams.
