On edge and exhausted? Dissatisfied and unsure of what to do? My aim is to help you find peace in the various domains of wellness - physical, emotional, intellectual, social, spiritual and occupational. In our time together, we will discuss what challenges you are experiencing, generate clarity on your desired direction, and create a plan to get you there. Together, we will work to get you from where you are, to where you want to be. My style is warm, authentic and collaborative. In sessions, we will use evidence-based interventions rooted in best-practice behavioral therapy.
I often quote from books and review research insights from neuroscience. My intention is to help you feel secure in yourself and in your closest relationships, so you can go out into the world and share your unique gifts and talents with your community.
I see clients located in the state of Wisconsin via a secure telehealth platform on weekday evenings and Saturday mornings. If you would like to work together, send me a message.
