Are small tasks overwhelming? Do changes feel too much to handle? Is food a source of comfort for you? Maybe you feel so much stress that it is easier just to deal with it by avoiding, procrastinating, overeating, or drinking alcohol. As a team we can address these concerns and more. Every individual is different and I tailor my approach to what is most helpful to YOU. This is a collaborative process - you know you best, and we will work together to get you to where you want to be. You won't be alone as you're guided to self-compassion and a sense of peace.
You will discover new skills and tools that you can use in your daily life. That will likely involve developing coping skills, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, managing difficult emotions, and navigating relationships. You CAN learn new ways of tackling problems, improve your emotional wellbeing, and feel a sense of control over daily situations.
Clients tell me I am empathetic, calming, non-judgmental, real, and a bit funny. There is a likely possibility one of my dogs or cat will join our video session. I have availability in evenings and on weekends, as well as during the day - please reach out for a free 15 minute chat and we can discuss what therapy might look like for you!
