We all get stuck sometimes and need help untangling our thoughts and emotions. There’s a part of you that desperately wants change, and another part that is terrified. You’re exhausted listening to the chorus of “shoulds” and “should nots” that are calling the shots about what a good life might look like. There are some painful things that happened to you that are hard to talk about - you know they still affect you but you’re not even sure where to begin to process through them. I believe that you, as you are today, are worthy of every joy and happiness. You deserve to be safe to mess up, change your mind, and try again.
I am committed to creating a nonjudgmental space where we can be curious about how your life led to who you today, and how you want to move forward. Together we can untangle the thoughts and feelings that trip you up, work on befriending all parts of who you are, and find a more hopeful and joyful experience of life.
I offer a trauma-informed, empathetic space for working together through anxiety, depression, life transitions, and trauma. You don't have to suffer alone - and no matter what has brought you here, together we can ensure you get what you need out of therapy.
