Stressed? Burned out? Anxious? Depressed? Overwhelmed by the world? Difficulty communicating? Feeling disconnected from your partner or yourself? The world is a crazy messy place sometimes (especially lately). Our past and current circumstances often create a difficult place to be in our thoughts and our feelings and we often can feel “stuck” in our current circumstances. Some of us carry really heavy burdens and keep on a brave face for those around us because for a lot of reasons like our jobs, roles at home, family, friends, keeping up with the Joneses, you name it!

In life we often face obstacles that cause us painful emotions, feeling disconnected, isolated, and confused. The good news, you do not have to navigate this alone. Are you consistently overwhelmed or stress, possibly healing from trauma, or navigating an abusive relationship? Or perhaps you're looking for a therapist trained in techniques to support ADHD or Autism. Whichever the obstacle, you and I will use a mindfulness-based approach, deepening your self-awareness, increasing self-compassion, and finding acceptance for where you are in the present moment. “It's an authentic therapeutic experience”

First: F ICE!
Second: Dads! Let's get real, parenting is hard.
And if you're feeling anxious, depressed, disconnected, overwhelmed...you're not alone, but it can feel that way. You're probably consumed by all of your tasks and goals; advancing your career, securing a stable income, and staying connected with your partner and loved ones, all while battling exhaustion and burnout. Perhaps you have unresolved past experiences weighing on you, too.
And on the surface, you want practical relationship, parenting, and self-care tools. What you may truly need though is to feel connected to others and your self.
I want to support you.

You are living a daily battle in your head about what you can eat, how much you should exercise, if you are worthy of taking up space. You are consumed by counting calories and by the negative voice inside that tells you, you’ll never be good enough or thin enough, smart enough or pretty enough. You are fed up with how the society/culture tells you how you should look and feel and behave. Your behaviors have you feeling exhausted and depleted and you wonder how you can go on another day. Others may think you have it all together on the outside, but the mental torture inside is killing you and feel like your life is shrinking.
