Adults I work with often find they are experts in taking care of everyone around them but feel uncertain how to take care of themselves. They may be "people pleasers" and know, in great detail, what others may need and how to fix things, but struggle to know what they themselves need, how they feel or how to address their own problems.  They may have had traumatic or adverse experiences that impact the way they react and cope in many situations. This often leads to feelings of anger, resentment, exhaustion and neglect of their own needs, with an increase in anxiety, depression, stress, burnout or grief taking over.
If this sounds familiar to you and you are finding yourself more depleted, unsupported and realizing its time for a change, but you're not sure where to begin, I can help support you in learning how to build healthy boundaries, implement effective coping skills, heal wounds from trauma and find your personal wellbeing!
Coming from a person-centered approach, I will implement treatments such as EMDR, Parts Work, CAMS, CBT, DBT, ACT and grief support to help you process, cope and move towards thriving! If you're ready to take action, commit to change, and engage in the hard work required to improve your life, I'm the right therapist for you!

I work with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, caregiver stress, burnout, and grief. Often, these symptoms result in people pleasing tendencies that impact their own self-care and well-being. Together we will build goals and identify proactive steps to help you find your way to healing and creating a life worth living. I enjoy working with clients who are ready to do the work!
