Close your eyes and imagine your life (or your child's life) as you wish it was. What is different about the life you are currently leading? Damaged relationships? Trauma? Anxiety? Depression? Grief? It can be scary and difficult to navigate life stressors, challenges, losses, and disappointments. I have worked with children, teenagers, and adults for greater than 10 years to address the barriers of their past and present that are impacting their lives and keeping them from a healthier and more enjoyable future.
I am friendly and empathetic, with a good listening ear. I am also focused on problem solving with a strengths-based and person-centered approach. I follow the needs that you present as we move toward your goals for how you would like your life to improve, encouraging and supporting you as we remove barriers to a happier and more fulfilled you.
"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you" - Maya Angelou, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. There is beauty in your story and a strength within you, and I would love to assist you in releasing your untold story while writing the next chapter with health and healing.
