You're not sure when it happened, but you don't recognize the child sitting in front of you or the person looking back at you in the mirror. You want to feel happier, healthier, and more confident, but nothing seems to work. You feel stuck in the past, experiencing difficulties with enjoying the present, making the future feel so hopeless. You feel so overwhelmed that you can't stop worrying and focus on work/school. You wish you could find the right words to let others know how you're feeling and the struggles you're facing. You just want to feel empowered to ask for help when you need it with hope you don't have to do this alone.
Imagine instead waking up looking forward to your day instead of feeling like it's too much to handle. Picture yourself finding things you feel passionately about, moving on from the difficulties of the past. See you/your child involved in life again, enjoying school/work, friends, and all the activities that make a kid, a kid or adulting with ease!
I work with teens/adults struggling with anxiety, sadness, and difficulties related to gender identity, childhood trauma, or being neurodivergent in a neurotypical world by using humor and an honest, holistic approach in our work together. Immediate in person, virtual, or walk & talk sessions available. Email/call to start your journey towards growth today!

Reclaiming Motherhood
This 3 week series of 5 sessions will include: Reframing experiences of things like rage, sadness, & panic from mental health to evidence of the things we aren’t GETTING. Unburdening of shame and grief in motherhood. Rethinking balance and how this can be a helpful shift. Recognizing that those moments where we feel like we’re being “bad” moms, really is YOU trying to protect YOU. We will find the space between stimulus & reaction so you feel like you’re able to pause, approach with curiosity & more knowledge about your choice in a way that feels safe for you.
