Are you finding yourself struggling to adapt to a change or transition in your life? You may be finding yourself overthinking, anxious, overwhelmed and/or feeling stuck. You may be having trouble sleeping, feeling sad, hopeless, insecure or tired of that negative voice in your head that seems to hold you back. You want to feel more confident, calm, clear and positive about the future. You want things to be different, get on a new path, but you aren't sure how to get there.
I offer my clients a variety of tools incorporating nature, art, movement and mindfulness exercises to gain insight and increase awareness of mind and body connection to empower them to reduce anxiety and feel more at ease, calm and present moment awareness. I am passionate about empowering people to be confident, motivated and creating a life of purpose.
Next steps may feel daunting, but you aren't alone. Please visit my website or contact me via email or phone if you have any questions or to schedule a free 15 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you!

I teach a variety of coping skills that, combined with CBT, are incredibly useful for managing anxiety. For my clients that are struggling with trauma I incorporate EMDR to process trauma as well as tapping and other coping skills to calm the nervous system. My clients begin reporting a feeling of relief as they realize that they have increasing power to notice and manage their body responses.
