Imagine the life you want, the goals you aspire to reach, the peace you hope to find, the strength you want to rediscover. Maybe you're an athlete striving to perform at your highest level or grappling with a career-altering injury that has shifted your sense of purpose. Perhaps you're a survivor of trauma who feels stuck, yearning for a way to make peace with the past without avoiding it. Or maybe you're grieving the loss of a loved one or another significant change in your life, trying to figure out how to move forward when the pieces feel scattered. If this sounds like you, let me help you pick up the pieces.
In our work together, I will meet you with compassion and empathy, but I will also be honest and straightforward. I won't shy away from the discomfort or the weight of what you're experiencing, while holding space to encourage you to move forward and grow. Healing isn't about forgetting the hard things, it's about integrating them in a way that makes sense.
Starting therapy can feel a lot like skydiving for the first time - totally nerve-wracking, but also a chance to experience something freeing and life-changing. The good news? I'll be your tandem partner, making sure the parachute is packed and guiding you all the way down. If you're ready to jump, email me for a free 15 min consultation.
