You have a story to tell and have been carrying it with you for a long time. Somewhere along the way, you stopped sharing your story with other people. You became small. Smaller for everyone else. You tried to find a way to feel bigger but everytime you did, something seemed to go wrong. You’d say the wrong thing. Do the wrong thing. Hurt someone you love. You were like a “bull in a china shop”. Your attempt to find your way back to the people you love would only leave you feeling more alone. You might be feeling like things are harder than you bargained for, but this is not work that you have to do alone.
I have often said that therapy is my favorite team sport, and if you are facing challenges in your relationships, patterns of behaviors, or just can't seem to get your feet underneath you, I’m ready to be a part of your team. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are struggling to make or keep positive, lasting relationships.
Reaching out to start this process can feel overwhelming. But just as the journey of 1000 miles begins with the first step, your path towards healing and growth starts by reaching out for help. If you or a loved one are in need of support, guidance, or direction, reach out today for a consult. I can't wait to hear your story.
