At some point in life most people will experience some form of depression or anxiety. Traumatic events in childhood create a different kind of stress that can cause current stressful events to be amplified for you. And most people have at least one event in their childhood that qualifies as a traumatic event. Whatever your stressors are, you have taken a positive step by seeking help. Many of the most successful people in life seek the counsel of others in order to increase knowledge and improve their lives. Therapy can be that counsel bringing clarity, collaboration, and change to your life.
My journey as a therapist began with my own search for answers, deepening my understanding of the therapy process through personal experience. In private practice over the past 20 years, I have helped many people to reduce anxiety and depression, and increase resiliency. I have also developed a specialty in work psychology through my consulting role at 3M.
Challenges are hard but can also bring learning, new possibilities, and growth! I am passionate about helping people walk down that path, developing a deeper understanding of self and others, a plan, and way back to fulfillment and peace in their lives. Call me today and take the first steps to living a better life.
