Currently taking on new clients! Congratulations on taking the first step towards healing and inner peace. It's not easy to ask for help, but when you do it's a huge relief. Sometimes life brings intense trauma, tough relationships, and/or family who makes you feel bad about yourself. You don't need to handle this alone anymore and no human being deserves permanent suffering.

Take a moment to picture your current path in life, is it cold and dark? Is it unpredictable and messy? Are you alone? You may notice you are feeling unmotivated, trapped, anxious, depressed, and/or struggling with sleep and daily routines. Please know you are not alone. Recognizing that your life is off the beaten path is self-awareness, and the first step to forging your desired journey. It is clear you have the innate skills necessary to grow and heal, demonstrated by you reading this! The decision to start counseling is a meaningful and deliberate choice to start creating this new life.
