About
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, making it difficult to enjoy the present, causing the future to feel hopeless. You feel so overwhelmed that you can't stop worrying and focus on work or 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, hoping you don't have to do this alone.
Imagine instead that you wake up looking forward to your day instead of feeling like it's too much to handle. Picture yourself finding things to feel passionately about and 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, depression, concerns related to gender identity, trauma, and life transitions. Clients who work with me, appreciate my humor and honest, holistic approach in our work together. Immediate in person, virtual, or walk and talk spots available! Email/ call to begin the growth process today!
