Therapists in Mishawaka, IN

Anxiety and depression can rob an individual from feeling like themselves. When we are in a dark place in our life it can become hard to open up to others and find the light that we are so desperately seeking. Often the goal becomes finding ways to cope effectively, especially when it comes to loss, trauma and grief. The biggest question becomes, "How do I get better?" You took the first step in asking for help! The rest will follow.

In my practice, I am privileged to hold space and provide support through women's health and mental health experiences, including perinatal wellness (pregnancy, birth, and postpartum), attachment and relationship concerns including marital and caregiving, change and adjustment, grief and loss, and trauma.

In our noisy stimulating world we long for silence in our soul, to listen, so that we might know what we are called to do.
