Sometimes life experiences can be difficult and often painful, which leads us to feeling stuck and unsure how to move forward. Counseling with me is a way to understand these stuck feelings and to support you in making the changes you want for yourself. Come in to a safe, compassionate, and trauma-informed space where you can explore how events in your life have impacted the way you think and feel. Through counseling, you can transform painful emotions into starting points for healing and move forward with the life you want.

The damn is ready to break - the tears are right behind your eyes! What happens if it breaks? You don’t know that you can put it back together let alone rebuild it completely. Nobody understands how hard it is to keep going. Life has just been so hard since it happened. The bad dreams only make it worse, you can’t remember the last time you got a good night's sleep. The constant anxiety and feeling on edge is just a cruel bonus. You’re afraid, embarrassed and stressed. Somehow, you pull yourself together...again. But every time you do you feel even more crushed and drained. As if you, the real you, is eroding.

If you are feeling overwhelmed by distressing emotions or stuck in a loop, you are not alone. Often, when we begin to notice that our mental health needs tending to, we might feel more isolated than ever. Or we might believe we deserve to suffer on our own. If 2020 has taught us anything, hopefully we can now see that caring for our mental wellbeing is a necessary and universal pursuit. So, whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or grief, now is the perfect time to start therapy.

Have you been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, unhappy, or alone in your life? Chronic stress, life transitions, loss, or emotional pain often leave us feeling helpless over our situations and limit our perspective about how we can move forward. If you feel like you are constantly looking for "more", stuck in your past, have chronic feelings of emptiness or fear about the future, you are not alone. Tackling these problems on your own can be isolating and it is important to find the right support to help you move forward.

Currently accepting clients. You will receive the fastest response back by emailing me. Sometimes seeking support can often feel like an exposing and vulnerable process, yet it doesn't have to be. Unpacking deep-rooted patterns and beliefs takes time, and can happen when we feel safe enough to disclose to others. I value connection and relationship in my practice, and aim to create a space where that processing can truly happen. I assist clients in identifying their patterns and core beliefs, and skills to regulate their emotions while focusing on their goals.
