It is not easy trying to get through each day when you feel anxious, overwhelmed or preoccupied with negative thoughts. In fact, these feelings often hinder you from building strong, healthy relationships, lead to self-doubt and cause you to feel unmotivated. However, you do not always have to feel like this because these are all feelings you can overcome. There are numerous ways I can help you to learn how to navigate through each day so you feel empowered, confident and able to approach stressful situations with ease.

Sometimes life gets complicated. Confronting and discussing your feelings requires strength. In my experience, things that are never discussed are never resolved. The decision to ask for help is a tremendous step forward. When choosing a counselor, look for someone you can easily sit across from. Then ask yourself, do you feel heard? I have listened to hundreds of stories. I respect each one as it reflects that person's journey through life. I feel privileged to play a part in that journey. I can provide support while reducing confusion. I promise to do my best to help you find your way! Thank you.

I know it can be hard to take the first step and ask for help, however, a new transition and transformation for your life is just around the corner.

Most people enter therapy looking to change some aspect of their lives. Some people know exactly how they want their lives to be different and simply need help developing skills to achieve their goals. Other people may need to spend more time determining exactly what type of change they need.

Everyone thinks you have it all together. You appear confident, happy and organized. You seem to have a good life. But your reality is that you're overwhelmed and you may feel like you're barely keeping it together. That voice inside of you is constantly telling you that you aren't good enough. You probably feel like you're taking care of everyone else all of the time - but never yourself. Maybe you've even been drinking too much to try to take the edge off sometimes. What you've tried to feel better doesn't seem to help. All you know is that you're exhausted, unhappy and don't know what to do anymore. Does this sound like you?
