Are you grappling with finding your purpose? I often hear my clients describe their situation as feeling stuck or trapped; similar to moving through quicksand. My typical client is looking for themself, their purpose, and may be having a lot of extensional questions about the meaning of life. Contrary to public belief, you are here, and thankfully you don't have to look any further! You don't need to go on Eat, Pray, Love 3-month excursion, unless you want to, of course. Sometimes these thoughts and challenges are caused by trauma, life transitions, or a mental health concern.

Do you feel stuck? Are you tired of working so hard and feeling like nothing ever changes? As human beings, we are creatures of habit. The way we think, reason and relate are based on patterns that have developed throughout our lives. If you continue to think - alone - about your struggles, you'll likely remain stuck in the same patterns. As human beings, we are also relational creatures. We learn about ourselves when we are in relationships with others. It is essential for any person's growth and development to think - with - another person.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating and scary for some clients. My goal is to make my clients feel supported, seen, and valued as soon as they step in the door. Being an animal-assisted therapist, I find highlighting and deepening the bond between humans and animals can have substantial impacts on one's mental health journey. Most clients that I work with vary in age, starting in early childhood and continuing on into parenting and adulthood. My ideal client is one that is engaged, open to learning, and motivated for positive change. Working together, we can take steps to help you live the best version of your life.
