If you or your child are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, or trauma, I can help. I offer individual sessions in the outdoors, where we take peaceful and mindful walks talking alongside each other, or via phone/video sessions for those who feel more comfortable in their own home. For those needing support and/or guidance getting through a difficult transition (relationships, work, school, crisis, medical), we can work together to get you on the road to peace and security.
We all deserve to be happy and in sync with the world around us. At times this takes a trusting person to confide in to emotionally grow. I provide a safe and nurturing space to explore your history and how this effects your mood, self confidence and wellbeing. We then work together to rebuild a strong yet flexible healthy sense of whole-self.
If you are considering therapy for yourself or your adolescent child, please call to set up a time for a complimentary 15 minute consultation and begin your journey.
