You may feel increasingly more anxious, emotional, or depressed. Life may even feel unmanageable. You might find yourself trying to fill internal voids with external things, such as substances, food, sex, or relationships. Experiences from your past could leave you feeling stuck in your present. Change can be terrifying, and taking that first step may feel really scary.
I became a therapist to help others see their worth and take ownership of their lives. I use Brainspotting, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, inner child work, breath work, mindfulness, CBT, and 12-Step principles to holistically guide clients. Despite what that persistent loop of negative self-talk in your head may tell you, you are good enough just as you are.
I know how difficult it can be to take that first step, so I strive to offer a light-hearted, non-judgmental space where humor and laughter become part of the healing process. If you are ready to take that first step, or are already on your self-awareness journey and want to continue moving forward, contact me to schedule a consultation or initial session!
