You have already invested in personal growth, learned mindfulness, meditate, focus on your wellness... and yet... you still feel stuck. You find yourself apologizing to the waitress when you ask for more salad dressing. You have trouble speaking up to your partner for fear of being called dramatic, too much or over-sensitive. You hate when people post your picture without showing you first. You hear whispers of the old you who wanted big things and know that it is your intuition calling. You want to stop feeling small. You want to make peace with old wounds. ​ You are ready to take up space without apology.

Due to the current health climate, phone and video sessions are available. Seeking help can often be overwhelming. This process is one that should be based on relationships.

To this I answer, in one word, from EXPERIENCE.” – John Locke.

I have experience treating a variety of clients from young children, teens, parents, and grandparents.

The complexities of our worlds create numerous opportunities for stress to overwhelm us. All stressors, regardless of intensity, can leave us feeling powerless and hopeless as they accumulate.
