In-person availability! If you are struggling in your life with symptoms of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, conflict, grief and loss, stress or PTSD or you’re burnt out at work, We can partner to help you figure out a way to honor your true nature, effectively communicate, gain clarity and the skills you need to thrive in your life. We all have the ability to change, learn and grow. We are not born with skills, throughout our life we gain many coping mechanisms, but some of those are born out of survival, fear or toxic family dynamics and might make it challenging to navigate in relationships or during life’s transitions.
For many this leads to experiencing a variety of symptoms. Life can also throw us some big curveballs that feel impossible to adjust to. I believe with assistance anyone can process the past, heal, build coping skills and cultivate a mindset that is needed to create a life that is enjoyable. I utilize DBT and EMDR to aid you in your journey.
I bring experience, compassion, integrity, and clinical skills to my practice. My services are fiercely confidential. I endeavor to be a soft place to land for all my clients. Please feel free to reach out for a consultation to see if we are a good fit to work together towards your goals. I look forward to hearing from you!
