Do you have stress and anxiety related to a pending divorce, infidelity, pornography addiction, drugs/alcohol, or violence? Often these "adult" issues become problematic in households where children are involved. Are your children caught in the middle? Poor grades and oppositional/defiant behaviors can result from differing parenting styles or other conflicts between adults in the home. I understand the difficulty of seeking help in situations where feelings of embarrassment, guilt, anger, fear, or shame are involved, and assist my clients in resolving them.

Come to me, all who are weary and find life burdensome, and I will give you rest". Matthew 11:28-30 Are you tired of being unhappy? Are you overwhelmed by life's demands?

If you are struggling with life circumstances such as relationship, marriage or individually with anxiety, depression, grief or trauma, I am here to help.

Most of my clients need help managing their day to day stressors that bring on anxiety and depression. Most want practical, real- world strategies that are solution focused. They want to be heard and they want reassurance that life can be better. Some people want to “rebrand” themselves to become who they truly want to be and I help them do just that. People want help with self development and self care to enhance their lives. Most people need to tell their story to someone that cares and that they trust. They want to talk with someone that understands and that has insight to help.

We all experience times in our lives where we need a person to talk to who is non-judgemental and supportive. The power of being able to open up to another person can unlock what has always been within and provide a new path filled with growth and hope.

Are you so good at hiding your pain or anxiety that people around you don't seem to notice that you're struggling? From the outside, you may appear to have it all together but, inside, you may be feeling unsure of yourself and your own abilities.

If you're struggling with feeling seen and you're ready for a change, let's work together to safely explore these concerns. Can't wait to hear from you!
