Life can be overwhelming. There are many things to address, or things we want to work on, but we often don’t know where to start. You don’t have to figure out it all out overnight. You don’t have to feel ashamed for being where you are. All you have to focus on is one small thing you can do today to get closer to where you want to be in life. Slowly, one step at a time, you can get there. That one step could be reaching out to a therapist to have non-judgmental support through this process. This is where I can help. I provide a therapeutic space to explore struggles in a relaxed manner.

You’re an over thinker and a deep feeler.

The decision to seek counseling is a decision to make change happen in your life! While the idea of counseling can be frightening to a person, the process of counseling is often rewarding and quite meaningful.

Have you ever said, “A part of me feels…but another part feels..."? Does this seem confusing and even lead to difficulties making decisions? Do you ever wonder, "Well, which part is me?!" The answer is, all of them! At times, parts may be wounded and carry painful emotions such as shame and anger, as well as parts that try to control and protect the person from the pain. We all have these different parts. I will invite you to focus on getting to know, understand, and heal wounded parts, restoring balance within the system.

I believe successful psychotherapy relies on a unique relationship between a client and a therapist that is jointly created; together we discover and nurture the client's needs. I provide insight-oriented therapy with the belief that you, the client, are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide guidance and understanding of your journey. I believe in authenticity in the therapeutic relationship, where I create a safe, warm and empathetic environment for exploration of past and present emotional struggles and psychological blockages to lead you toward your own healing and personal growth.

Perhaps you are an incredibly caring person who puts other people’s needs first. You enjoy giving your time and energy towards making others feel happy, and perhaps you’ve been playing on the sidelines in your own life. But, you secretly fear you won’t get love or respect back if you did not do so. So perhaps, you keep doing and giving and playing quietly. Truth is, this depletes you and leaves you not living the life you were truly meant to live. As head of household or business, you feel tired, stressed and perhaps not as happy as you’d like to be. And, you’ve neglected your own needs in mind, body and spirit for some time now.
