Are you struggling and feeling alone and misunderstood? Are you suffering from excessive worrying, or feeling like you have lost hope that things can get better? Maybe you feel that you are not the person you once were, and you want so much to get that person back. Sometimes we go through a period in our lives where we just need a little guidance to get back on our feet. You have already courageously taken the first step by seeking help and that takes strength! I am honored to be a part of this very important journey, to be your guide and companion in this healing process.
Throughout my clinical experience, I have helped clients overcome symptoms of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I have also helped clients with more serious mental illness including Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder to be able to live more satisfying lives. Additionally, I help people who just want to manage stress better to enhance their overall wellbeing.
By building a trusting relationship, providing empathy, compassion, and support I help guide those in their journey to new life meaning. I ensure a safe non-judgmental space to work through past traumas and overcome barriers. You can count on my empathetic and person centered approach towards every conversation we take part in. I look forward to meeting you!
