“No matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and will be better tomorrow”- Maya Angelou. For many, life brings stress, depression, anxiety, or trauma. Trying to balance unhealthy thoughts, feelings, or behaviors with family, work, and school can quickly feel overwhelming. Therapy provides a safe and nurturing environment where a client can increase self-awareness and receive validation. I work with individuals, couples, and families to help process difficulties, learn effective coping skills, and grow and heal to improve emotional health and well-being.
