I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. As a woman, you may be often seen as "Super Woman", where you can do it all and be it all, while putting others and their needs before your own. But the truth is, you are human. You may be feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious or maybe you are struggling with finding balance in your life.

I strongly believe the best things in life aren’t things. In fact, I’d say it’s having peace of mind and the courage to take the first step toward change; making decisions with autonomy and living life from a place of intention and confidence rather than fear and obligation. With the amount of barriers we all face, it’s essential to find someone that will support you in finding that strength within yourself and gently push you to set your limits outside of your comfort zone.

Making change can be a difficult and challenging process. However, it is through this process that you can increase insight and find the inner strength to live more fully. Just as every individual is unique, so too, is the path to realizing your goals. It is from this understanding that I will tailor my approach to your individual needs. Whatever life struggles may bring you in, I will provide a warm, accepting environment for self-exploration, healing, and the development of coping skills to navigate life's obstacles.
