You're stressed and exhausted from all you have to face. You’ve been following the same pattern with relief and progress out of reach. Maybe you believe a fresh perspective will get you closer to the shift you're needing. If you're ready for something different, therapy can give you a place to find your way. Yes, you're allowed to take a breath and get a fresh perspective so you can move forward instead of two steps back. You don't have to keep feeling broken; humans need connection in order to heal. I'm honored to witness your story, dig alongside you for solutions, and hold space as you reconnect with your vision, and values.
Having me as your therapist is interactive and incorporates mindfulness. We'll explore how stress, society, & relationships influence you. You'll experience a release for your heavy burdens. I'm warm, collaborative, compassionate, and I bring encouragement, creativity, a playful spirit and—at times—Animal-Assisted Counseling (photo of Fyrenz below).
It is my honor to watch clients of all ages regain confidence, create the space to express big emotions, & leave feeling more connected. Your inner-voice may be saying that your suffering can't get better - and, I believe you have the power within to bounce back. Click over to my website if you need to read more about me or go ahead & send me an email here.

I believe using in-the-moment prompts, such as imagination & physical movement, help my clients to metabolize stress & emotions more easily. For example, I may guide a mindful moment or ask you to use creative reflections & try new types of self-expression, including expressive art activities.
