Feeling lost? Angry? Maybe even a little broken? That's okay. In therapy, there are no masks, no need to hide your true feelings. You can cuss, cry, or scream if you want. It's your space to be unapologetically you, without expectations or judgments. Maybe you've been through therapy before, and while it helped to have someone listen & give you coping skills, it was like slapping a Band-Aid on a wound. You know logically what you should do, but your emotions keep dragging you down different paths. Those thoughts of not being good enough, needing to please everyone, or striving for perfection, They're suffocating, aren't they?

Maybe you feel like you’ve tried everything, and nothing works. Maybe you don’t even know where to start. Perhaps you’re experiencing pressure from your partner, your work, your family or yourself to make changes, to get better, to BE better. It’s easy to lose perspective and hope when life hands us challenges we feel ill-equipped to overcome. My practice works to integrate care for the mind, heart, and body. Therapy does not seek perfection, yet it can provide guidance, validation, and space to define your own goals to increase a positive sense of well-being and daily satisfaction
