Simply put, money conversations are hard. Our relationship with money is complex, just like our relationships with loved ones, coworkers, ourselves, and our bodies. On top of that, money is often paired with feelings of anxiety, fear, shame, guilt, and embarrassment. “I’m bad with money. I'm overwhelmed. I keep making the same mistakes. I spend too much - and on the wrong things. I have more debt than I care to admit. Being good with money is for other people, not me.”

Life becomes stressful sometimes, and societal pressure combined with changes, expectations, and conflicts are only some of the triggers that may induce stress, insomnia, anger, sadness, further conflicts, and at times uncontrollable overwhelm. You are not alone in feeling this way. My mission as a therapist is to remind you that you are safe, and to help you receive the support you may need outside of the one you may currently have from friends, family members, and loved ones.

My belief is an individual, or couple, need to make the decision for the changes in their life.
Are you feeling stuck in an unhealthy cycle that you feel continues to catastrophize into every situation? Many of us get into negative patterns of communication or reflection of self, due to past hurts or traumas. These build up into cycles we feel helpless to get out of, and view them as setbacks wondering why did it have to happen at all. The answer we want to believe, but struggle to see through the hurt, is that these all happen for a reason.

Life can become overwhelming, sometimes we forget it is a work in progress. The last few years have been a wild ride! Detours can happen making it easy to forget that the detours may be necessary to help us move forward. I enjoy having the privilege of helping individuals reach their full potential by helping to recognize their strengths through therapeutic intervention, self care, identifying coping strategies and learning to stay in the moment. The work can be difficult but that does not mean there may not be laughter, tears and progress.
