Therapists in Jacksonville, FL

Sometimes sh*t happens. And It can be an overwhelming decision to ask for help, especially when contacting a stranger. What happens when the story I have for my life doesn’t go as planned? My dream job isn’t bringing the fulfillment I thought it would. I envisioned myself fully showing up in this world, but now my trauma leaves me powerless beneath my anxiety and depression. I identified with a religion that once gave me freedom, but now it leaves me in bondage. My family was once a safe haven, but now dad is drinking too much and everything I knew is gone.

I believe everyone has the capacity to be the best version of themselves. Sometimes, though we can get stuck in a rut or find that what used to work, isn't working so great anymore. It's my joy to help find areas where you can improve and take those steps towards transformation. When it comes to couples, my expertise can help with improving communication, resolving conflict, and growing closer through empathy and understanding in order to get that love we are looking for in our most meaningful relationships.
