Transitions and adjustments can be difficult. At times we can feel wonderful, while other times we are left wondering "what happened?". In those moments, it can be difficult to know what to do or how to navigate the next steps in our life. The journey can be painful, overwhelming and just down right exhausting. While many of us experience similar situations, no one experience is the same; which is why I want to help find what benefits and helps you the most. I will help guide you and support you during your journey by tailoring treatment to fit you and your experience(s).

Since the Covid-19 pandemic, life as we know it, has changed. For some, these changes have been much larger and much more traumatic than others. Depression, anxiety, self-harming behaviors, and suicide attempts are just a few of mental health concerns that are on the rise in our country. Feelings of isolation, loneliness, and fear in children and adults have become unfortunate byproducts of the pandemic. At times we may feel powerless or even hopeless. Engaging in therapy can give one the tools and skills needed to navigate this unprecedented time and help manage life’s stressors in a healthy, safe, and proactive manner.

ANXIETY! The alarm clock goes off, and you peel your head from under the covers. "Oh crap, another day", you think to yourself. You try to muster the courage to face today, but you feel stuck. You stand on the side of the bed with what feels like cement bricks on your fee. The worry and fear of leaving the house is too familiar an experience you've been trying to manage for so long. Sadly, you become deflated, lay back down, hoping to try again tomorrow. But it seems like your tomorrow will never come. Constantly stuck in the cycle of trying to concur the anxiety that has crippled you seems too much so you quit.
