Do you feel like you’re doing your best but are still stuck in old patterns of anxiety, sadness, or loneliness? Navigating the swamps of stress, worry, sadness, and pressure is exhausting - it’s not unusual to feel burned out, stuck, or even a little hopeless. Therapy is an opportunity to address challenges, past, and future, while working toward the life you want to live.

Loneliness, negativity, and our reactions can severely impact our mental health. Ironically, it is sometimes easier to push away people than deal with difficult feelings. We choose this path by abusing substances, alcohol, avoidance, etc. When we run from our feelings and challenges, we are hurting ourselves and others. Together we can work through these difficult experiences and navigate around the painful emotions to feel better and find joy again.
