Are you often feeling misunderstood, worried, stressed, down, angry, upset, disconnected? Do you find that your relationships can feel challenging? Are you stuck dwelling on the past? Finding yourself repeating unhealthy habits? Having trouble navigating life’s twists and turns? If any of this rings true, you’re not alone. If you find that your emotions are becoming hard to manage and you need a professional to talk to, I’m glad that you are taking the first step with seeking therapy.
I think life is best looked at as a journey. Sometimes you need a safe space to discuss yours. A space to reflect on how you stand in the world. How you think, feel, behave and relate. I will hold this safe space with you and support you through the process that you need.
While joining you on this journey of yours, I will provide you with trust, humor, knowledge, understanding and creativity. I have worked in various therapeutic settings for seventeen years and have a wide range of experience. I believe therapy can be life altering and I have a true passion for the work that I do. I look forward to hearing from you.
