Welcome to Mazzy Health. We're an evidence-based therapy practice with telehealth appointments available today.

I am passionate about providing education and empowerment around the mind-body connection. We learn to understand how the mind and body may be in survival mode and how a learned response may no longer serve us. Holding space allows for the body and mind to create space from imprinted thoughts & emotions in order to see choice in self-talk, belief systems, behaviors, and gain acceptance of ourselves. We learn how to rewire/rewrite our narrative through self-compassion.

Have you ever felt like you are on a boat lost at sea and you don't know where to turn? There are unexpected life events for human beings that can cause sudden stress, trauma, and challenges in their daily life. Without support some people have no place to turn and they feel hopeless and lost. A change in course cannot occur without action and calling in for support is the first step and sometimes the hardest step. Here at a "safe harbor" you can find respite, guidance, support, and encouragement to work through your challenges and find the inner strength to empower yourself to manifest what you need and your destiny.

I believe YOU are THE EXPERT of your own life. One's perspective often limits one's view of problems and blocks one's intentions, desires, and dreams. I come alongside you in your journey and guide you as you discover that problems are not permanent attachments but issues which can be transformed into manageable catalysts for change. Change requires a plan which involves steps leading to reachable and measureable goals. Have oppressive feelings of helplessness and victimization become the story of your life? Would you rather optimism and hope? Then I invite you to Rewrite the Story of Your Life.

Life involves constant changes, and is not always easy. Change is necessary for growth, but can cause confusion and discomfort, which may impair our ability to move towards the fulfilling lives we envision. Feelings of hopelessness and isolation often lead to unhelpful means of coping, which create a new set of problems. No matter what your struggle, you don't have to do this alone. I believe that a supportive, therapeutic relationship, with you in the driver's seat, can provide clarity and direction. My person-centered approach can help you feel more secure as you navigate your own path. I look forward to walking it with you.

I am here to meet the client where they are at in this moment. I will provide a safe and nurturing environment to hear my client's story. With compassion and in a collaborative effort we will out line the goals and objectives for treatment. These goals provide benchmarks for growth. As we reach these goals together we will reassess and make a determination about areas to focus and set new goals and objectives. Establishing trust and building a strong therapeutic alliance is the cornerstone of my practice.
