Today is your day! This is your time to make the changes you've been putting off! You've been fighting...wrestling. It's time to take control. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma-related anxiety or grief, low self-esteem, or domestic violence/abuse or relationship issues, now is the time to apply pressure to those areas of your life that are keeping you from achieving success and fulfillment.

I understand how it can be difficult to reach out for help especially when you may be feeling sad, anxious, and overwhelmed. I understand that it is hard to trust someone and express your doubts and fears. Let me help you. I believe that life is too short to think of therapy as just hard work. Challenging? Yes. Laughter? Yes. Compassion? Yes. Therapy is about knowing that you want to reach the goal of feeling better about yourself, your relationships, your life.

The clients I work with have often experienced profound changes in their mood or behavior, suddenly or gradually. They don't feel like themselves. Their anxiety may not go away. They're stuck or simply not happy in their current life choices. I help clients identify unhealthy patterns and triggers to distress. In our time together, clients develop skills to interrupt unhelpful or unwanted patterns in thought, mood and behavior. My clients are often looking to improve relationships, work toward goals and reduce stress. They want to gain healthy coping skills and learn positive reframing to improve functioning and stability.

I want you to imagine leaving your home in the morning, navigating the busy roads to work. You’re tired, barely focused and dreading the day ahead. You pull into the parking lot of your employer, taking a deep breath. You grab your work things and walk towards the office. You stop, frozen in the sea of mental waves, a thousand thoughts crashing into one another, unable to organize them. Everything stops for a moment, a beacon of clarity forms in the distance and you’re able to hear one calm thought. You ask yourself “am I on the right path?”

Eleanor Roosevelt once said, “We gain strength, courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face.” Maybe you are struggling with the day-to-day stressors we face.

When a person is faced with life stressors, it can be hard to know how to "act" or "present themselves." An ideal client is one who recognizes that something is not right and takes the first step in seeking help. That is the most difficult part. They recognize the way they are feeling is not how they want or need to feel. It takes courage to ask for help and I understand the process of finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I am proud of you for taking the first steps towards a positive change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you through your journey.
