Anxiety and depression go hand in hand with stress, and today stress is not functioning in a normal way. We have stress hormones flooding our organs more frequently, We lose sleep, get sick easier, and sometimes have changes in our eating behaviors. Poorly managed stress can lead to serious health problems over time (blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, digestive issues). Life happens and undue stress is often unavoidable. However, there is good news! By taking a proactive stance to manage your mental welfare, you can decrease your bodies’ response to stress and improve your chances remaining healthy longer than many people do.
I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy to assist you in changing the lenses you use to view your world. Life happens and sometimes it seems as if things will never get better. They can be better! You have a choice to be proactive! Don't let fear of the unknown prevent you from a better tomorrow. You can rise above your problems; they don't own you.
Welcome to your purpose driven approach to managing your experiences in a more useful way. My goal is to work with you and understand what you are experiencing. Together we can explore your experiences and what has brought you to this place. Mahatma Gandhi,stated: "The future depends on what you do today." Don't wait another day. Make contact today.

I know that it is confusing to decide what ails us in this human experience. Is it genetics? Is it experiences? Is it both? I can help you explore things that have been longstanding (anxiety/depression) or brief sudden experiences (loss of a loved one, or a relationship/trauma). People are now utilizing coaches for physical exercise, weight loss, & nutrition. Let me be your mental health coach.
