Let’s say it – life can be hard! It takes courage to ask for help and I’m here to help you develop greater self-understanding and cope with your concerns better. Family and relationship problems, microaggressions/discriminations, financial stress, work and academic demands can sometimes feel overwhelming. Unmanaged self-critical thoughts and rejection of our natural emotions make it worse and can lead to depression and excess anxiety. You may find that the coping strategies you’ve used in the past are no longer working for you. Well, I am here to help support your journey towards building the sort of life you want.

It has been so hard. Perhaps you are living with a secret you feel like you cannot share with anyone. It may have started long ago, when you were a child. Maybe you feel shame, and you blame yourself for what happened to you. If only it made sense. Wouldn't it be so nice to leave the guilt aside and feel safe again? Wouldn't it be so liberating to be free of this pain? It can feel so isolating but please know.. you are not alone. I want to help you connect with the hurt inside of you, nurture the child who needed love the most. It is possible to nurture that child, even now. I want to help the release all that is holding you back.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
