There's something about taking the first step that makes us uncomfortable but you've made it here! You've probably never fit in with the crowd. Perhaps you're an introvert, a nerd, a rule breaker, the black sheep? I created Born to Fly for you. You have been dealing with mental illness, addiction or simply getting through a life transition. What would life be like if you were able to move forward with confidence and healing? "Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, she became a butterfly."

It is at this point that people become willing to try something different after all what is there to lose? Therapy can be a life altering experience if you wish it to be! There is work to be done but you will be supported and empowered throughout the process. I am reminded often there are things we can't do alone that with another person's help become possible. Being inspired and motivated that there is hope is where the journey begins...

This positively impacts emotional, physical and spiritual well being. I like working with adults who are in transition, who are struggling in their relationship, and/or who continue to have the after effects of traumas in their lives. It is my belief that wounding begins in relationship and therefore needs to be healed in relationship.
