Accepting new clients! People often feel alone with their problems. Friends, family, and/or colleagues may see you in one way, while your private life may be different. You may be unhappy with how life is going generally or with specific things about yourself or your relationships. My practice is designed to help you feel comfortable sharing your troubling issues and encourage you to develop new insights, create strategies to manage stressors and enhance your strengths.

Tired of feeling stressed, overwhelmed and unmotivated? Do you find yourself struggling to make time for yourself? The women that I work with often have full schedules with work, family, children, school and everything else, with very little time to prioritize their own health and well-being. They are typically in need of better coping strategies to help manage their symptoms of anxiety, stress and depression. Their goals are usually to feel mentally, emotionally and physically stronger to allow them to feel more confident and focused in their day to day life.
