You've waited long enough. It's time to live a truly fulfilling life. If we’re being really honest, hasn’t it not been working for a while? Perhaps life doesn’t look or feel the way you had hoped it would? Maybe you remember a time when feeling lost, disappointed and/or overwhelmed wasn’t the norm, but those days feel like a distant memory? Don’t you wish you could change that? I help clients just like you. I will help you develop greater confidence, connection and fulfillment by equipping you with the tools you need to gain absolute clarity on what you truly want and overcome what’s held you back. Whether you have decided a change
is necessary or you are facing a life-changing situation that requires a transition. Many of my clients have tried self-help options or had disappointing results in prior therapy. This time will be different! We’ll dive deeper. My clients typically describe me as insightful, direct but gentle. You won’t just get an “I see” or “how do you feel about that”.
My 30+ years of experience means I have the expertise to help heal once and for all! We’ll replace unhealthy patterns with confidence and action you've been longing to take. I’ll be there with you to help harness your strengths, celebrate your successes & provide hope when change is challenging. You don't have to continue to struggle or face this alone.
