You may be arriving here feeling overwhelmed, unfulfilled, or stuck—aware that something in your life needs to change, but unsure where exactly to begin. Despite having a vision for how things could be different, the gap between where you are and where you want to be may feel insurmountable at times. In response, you may find yourself engaging in coping strategies or behavioral patterns that offer short-term relief but ultimately reinforce the very distress you're hoping to move beyond.
I offer a welcoming space for thoughtful exploration of who you are, what you truly want, and what may be blocking deeper connection with yourself or others. My integrative approach draws from Internal Family Systems, acceptance-based strategies, and an array of other evidence based strategies to support you in authoring a life that fulfills and inspires you
Imagine living a life where you were able to maintain a greater sense of resilience, authenticity and deep love for yourself and others, no matter what challenges arose or difficult internal experiences came to surface. Feel free to give me a call for a free 20 minute consultation to explore how we can collaborate to meet your goals
