You feel like this phase of your life should be filled with excitement, or maybe even relief, but instead you find yourself feeling worried, lonely and filled with doubt and fatigue instead.
You have started to worry that you might not get better on your own and you might not be able to fix it. Even when your life looks okay from the outside, it doesn't feel okay for you. You fear you are missing out on what should be great years of your life.
Whether it’s finding self-compassion or moving through years of avoidance to a place of emotional security, I’m here to help you navigate the messiness of growth through life's changes.
Together, we will build a relationship that feels real, supportive, and unique to you while ensuring you feel momentum within our first sessions. I look at your life as a whole, considering your relationships, environment, culture and health.
I meet with people in my office in Reading, MA or for telehealth throughout MA, CT and VT. On my website you can book a free 15-minute consultation, where I will guide us through the simple steps to connect, so you don’t have to worry about what to say or how to start. Let’s figure out together how you can start feeling more fulfilled in life!
