Are you feeling lost in this ever changing world/environment? Do you struggle to find your joy? Or are you a family member seeking problem-solving for family dynamics or behavior concerns. Do you feel lost dealing with school issues with your child. Or maybe you are going through serious life transitions in a boat with no oar.
I can help provide a new perspective, perhaps point out roads not yet taken by you. My counseling does not fit in a box. I consider many angles. The most important fact is where the client is emotionally and intellectually. This should not be a scary experience, rather comforting and supportive.
My own experiences have taken me through some of the same struggles as clients. Raising kids, working in schools, child welfare, supervision of therapists, private therapy practice, to name a few. I journeyed through, often with the help of a therapist that provided much-needed support. My goal is to help you work through life's difficulties.
If you are struggling and have thought of counseling but keep procrastinating, take a leap. You may be surprised how good it feels to have support, other perspectives, and a non-judgmental place to talk. Book that 15 min. consult or just begin therapy. It is a no shame and no pressure zone.
