Have you experienced trauma, illness, health circumstances or life changes and feeling like previous ways of coping are no longer working? Are you seeking relief from symptoms of trauma, anxiety, burnout, grief/loss, caregiving, adjustment to illness? Or feelings of overwhelm, fear, loneliness, uncertainty or being "off"? Perhaps you're a healthcare provider, first responder or military serviceperson seeking support from someone who "gets" the culture & has the skills/experience to help. If so, you've come to the right place. I will help you gain knowledge, skills & strategies to regain a sense of control & feel better.
Who we are today is a product of lived experiences & circumstances, these in turn impact how we experience & cope day to day. Through this lens & at a pace that's right for you, we work together to find a path forward. I'm easy to talk to, experienced, safe, trustworthy & do not judge. I will help you to feel better & we'll even smile along the way.
Whether you're new to therapy & unsure what to expect, talked out from therapy & still struggling, or anything in between, I invite you to take the first step of reaching out to schedule a free, no obligation phone conversation. We can talk & I can answer your questions. My practice is inclusive of all individuals and values diversity, equity & inclusion.
