Are you feeling isolated, alone or disconnected? Are you fed up with feelings of anxiety or depression or struggling with low self worth? You might not even remember a time when things didn’t feel this way. One thing is for sure: you’re ready for change. At SB Therapy Group, therapy is about connection. We connect through our shared experiences that resonate with the inner world of each other; sharing care and empathy, laughing together, and building trust. Come as you are so that you can explore the multiple aspects of your personality, the sources of wounding and ultimately gain a more intimate understanding of yourself.
SB Therapy is a place where you will feel safe, seen and understood; we will build a trusting partnership that allows us to move beyond coping skills to the root of why you think and feel the way you do. I specialize in working with girls and women by helping them manage stress, anxiety and relationship issues in order to create balance and find empowerment.
Therapy isn't always complicated, it is also down to earth, inspiring and supportive. Therapy can be that one place where a person gets you - all parts of you. We will walk with you every step of your journey - until you get where you want to be.
