Transitional experiences are a part of life. Often we are able to fully embrace, celebrate or grieve and pass through these with relative ease. However if you find yourself in a struggle where mood is shifting, anxiety is increasing or if joy is missing from moments that should be joyful- if fear inhibits your desired growth or you struggle to find purpose or motivation-- maybe this is part of your life's journey where you allow yourself to be supported. I work from a strengths perspective, treating, diagnosing and offering opportunities for insight, growth and healing. Your story is the focus of care, your uniqueness is celebrated

You probably identify as a “people pleaser” and make most of your decisions based on what will keep the peace rather than create your own peace. And don’t even get me started on the expectation that we are never supposed to age…
