Are you overwhelmed by the number of things you "have to do" when you don't "want to do" any of them? Some days, you might feel stuck in a rut and can’t get out. You might feel like are holding everything together, but you aren’t enjoying your life. You may question the direction of your life. When you stop to think about it, you may realize don't like the path you are on. Yet, you aren’t sure whether it's scarier that you don’t often question the path or how often you continue to march down the path knowing how you feel. Yes, it’s a scary place to be, but you gathered up the courage to take the first step. Most people don't.
You want to feel good in your personal AND professional life. You want your life to include things you want to do, not just what you “should” or “have to” do. You want to feel better about yourself and the direction you are headed. You aren't alone. I help people develop insight, recognize opportunities, move past challenges, and take action.
You don't have to do this alone. I welcome you as you are, with all your strengths and opportunities for growth. I'm excited about the work we could do together. Tell me what's going on and ask how we can get started. Therapy can be challenging. Reaching me doesn't have to be. The fastest/easiest way to get in touch is via email or scheduling on my website.
