Imagine being full of joy, presence, and gratitude. Life can be hard at times with all of its troubles. It may feel like you're no longer a driver, but a passenger in your own life. You have difficulty seeing beyond the here and now, unable to find solutions, and you can't come back to a sense of self because everything else seems to be keeping you from peace. You're wanting to take control and live a life you've been dreaming of. I work specifically with substance use, depression, anxiety, and general life transitions.
During our sessions, you are the expert in your life, and my role is to help you untangle the dynamics that influence your well-being. We'll explore all aspects of life including childhood, relationships, boundaries family dynamics, and how your current day to day functioning can be improved to live a life that is shamelessly and truly yours.
Let me help you make your 13 year old self be proud of the individual you are today. I understand that each therapist is different and offers a unique style of counseling, and I want to ensure that you feel heard and validated by a provider that cares for you. I invite you to reach out with any questions you have.
