Grief, loss, and burnout. We have all experienced it at one point or another in our lifetime. Loss comes in many shapes and forms, for some it presents itself as mourning the loss of a loved one, a colleague, a child. For others, loss presents itself as the idea of what might have been or even the thought "What could I have done differently? Could I have prevented this?" If you feel that you have been struggling with getting back into your life, connecting with others, showing up fully at work, or feeling detached help is out there.

I think that we need to be the safest when we are able to be with ourselves. I have also found that life has the ability to make that hard at times and through my own journey of struggling and learning about my mental health, I learned a lot about being human. I don't believe that we are born resilient, I believe it is built into us through getting knocked down and learning different ways of getting back up. This isn't always fun but it's always worth it. I am all about empowering my clients to learn who they are, so they can better love themselves, and be better able to obtain and maintain a happier and healthier life.
