Are you feeling like you aren't yourself lately? Maybe you're wondering why everything seems like so much effort or you don't find joy like you use to. Or perhaps anxiety is keeping you from living the life you want. Maybe life has thrown you one too many curve balls and you're feeling overwhelmed and hopeless. You may feel alone in your experience or feel stuck, perhaps believing you are a failure, unlovable, or not good enough. Self-doubt, sadness, and anxiety are part of the human experience. Sometimes, though, it feels like they take control and keep us from living the life we want.
We may not be able to get rid of thoughts and emotions we don't like or simply think ourselves into feeling better, but we can learn to shift how we show up to our thoughts and feelings so we feel more in the driver's seat and can do things in life that matter to us. My goal is to foster a warm, supportive space where you feel safe on this journey.
It can be hard to seek help and find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable. Our first appointment is an opportunity for us both to assess if we are a good fit for working together. If I'm not able to offer best treatment for your needs or you do not feel comfortable proceeding with me, I am happy to assist you in finding someone who may be a better fit.
