Stress, frustration, sadness, anxiety. These are all feelings we experience and are able to manage most of the time. Sometimes though, you may need a little more help than the people closest to you can provide. Our sessions will give you some time to care for yourself. You will have the opportunity to grieve your losses, develop new coping skills, make informed decisions, and improve your relationships. We work together so you can stay present and connected, even as events and people around us shift with uncertainty.

Becoming a parent is a wonderful experience, but comes with many challenges at all stages. Feeling irritable, "invisible", and worrying about not managing emotions well in front of your kid(s) are examples of those struggles. Sometimes we cope in unhealthy ways, unfortunately. Your ability to be your best self is tested and it may affect your mental health. Attending therapy is an action that shows strength and leads to positive changes for you and your family. Stuffing feelings and ignoring problems with distractions only leads to more problems. Tools learned in therapy are life-changing and benefit those close to you also.

Watching your child struggle, regardless of their age, can be heartbreaking. You may feel helpless, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to support them, no matter how much you want to. Maybe you've tried everything—reassurance, advice, reward systems, even tough love—only to feel like nothing is working. Parenting through challenges like anxiety, depression, or emotional outbursts can feel exhausting and isolating. If you’re feeling lost, unsure where to turn, or simply in need of guidance, help is available. Sometimes that means therapy for your child, and sometimes that means support for you. Either way, I'm here to help!

Is it finally time to invest in yourself? There is so much pressure to be strong and handle everything on your own that we forget that we all need support. Asking for help in processing through these challenges shows the strength and courage needed to make real and meaningful changes. While I will always make sure to listen, be empathetic and supportive, I will also be direct and will challenge you to identify the patterns in your life that are contributing to your current distress. I will work collaboratively to help you identify and prioritize the values that are important to you and live more intentionally with these in mind.
