Are you stressed, anxious, sad, depressed, dealing with life adjustments, or just overwhelmed? Asking for help can be difficult and discussing personal struggles can be intimidating. Many of my clients are stuck, are looking to move forward, and want to be the best version of themselves. If you are looking to rewrite your life story, therapy can help.

During these unusual times, are you feeling lost, stuck, confused? Do you feel you are not living out the most authentic and genuine version of yourself? Wellness is a balance of nurturing the mind, body and soul. We all deserve to live a meaningful, balanced and happy life.

Even when we have tremendous anxiety and pain, the strength and resilience we desire already reside within us. During times of stress, grief or uncertainty, it is common to forget this and to adopt maladaptive styles of coping and communicating that tend to deepen our distress. Sometimes we fall back into negative thinking based on faulty core beliefs about ourselves and the world. I will hold space for you with empathy and non-judgment. You will be seen, you will be heard, and you will be supported in your growth.
