In a world where we are inundated with so much "noise" at the touch of our fingertips, I want to offer you a quiet space to come, turn off the noise for a while, and process through the things that matter to you. Whether you're dealing with life's stressors, suffering under the weight of anxiety and depression, needing assistance processing through trauma, looking for new tools to cope, or simply searching for a reassuring and validating outlet to help sift through the heavy emotions we all encounter at some point or another, I am ready to come alongside you and walk you through your healing journey.
I will ride with you in the passenger seat and help you navigate through the difficult times in your life, while also providing comfort, a listening ear, psychoeducational resources, helpful tools and skills to manage symptoms, and practices that will be valuable assets to you as you take control and step boldly into your new destination.
Regardless of what you look like, where you're from, who you love, or who you authentically choose to be, I want to be an ally for you and a facilitator for change. I look forward to meeting you and beginning your journey of healing together! I also have an emotional support dog available on site as an additional comfort and support for clients.
