Live Boldly, Build a Life You Love! Many of us seek supportive relationships and a meaningful life, yet internal struggle can take us in the wrong direction from what we truly want. We often become entangled in unhelpful patterns, making it difficult to move forward with our goals. I work with individuals, couples, and groups who grapple with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and trauma. I also support those who feel overwhelmed or stuck, guiding them to break free from prolonged cycles of distress and build a life they love.
For those facing intense fears, chronic anxiety, or avoidance, overcoming these challenges can feel nearly impossible. I offer a safe, structured space to take gradual steps toward confidence and resilience. My approach is warm and collaborative, helping clients move from feeling trapped by anxiety to finding control and strength, even in discomfort.
In our work together, we’ll carefully confront what feels unmanageable, building the skills to face these fears with courage. I’m here to guide and support you as you turn toward what’s uncomfortable and start living with greater freedom.
