"Some prisons don't require bars to keep people locked inside. All it takes is their perception that they belong there. A soul who believes that he/she can't leave, doesn't."

Congratulations! If you are reading this, you have found the courage to take an important step towards taking care of yourself. Perhaps counseling is something you have been putting off for a long time believing that others would judge you as weak, or that other needs in your life were more important. We have all experienced various degrees of trauma in our lives. Sometimes we find it difficult to move forward because of overwhelming emotions and self-limiting beliefs. Obtaining counseling is in fact a strong and wise decision. I would consider it a privilege to join you on your journey of discovery and healing.

Congratulations to you for making this first step. I know this isn't the most exciting thing you could be doing, scanning through therapist after therapist, and finding the "perfect fit" is hard.

Whether it be working through depression & anxiety, healing from your past or simply those overwhelming running thoughts that don't seem to stop, I can do my best to help, and if your lucky, maybe share a few laughs along the way too.

Be proud of yourself. If you have found my profile, you have already taken the first step toward helping yourself, this may be the most difficult of them. For the second step, if you're looking for support toward healing past traumas or navigating any symptoms you may not even understand, such as anxiety or depression. If you're tired of "being over dramatic", having nightmares, panic attacks or even, struggling to get out of bed, take that second step. Therapy can be scary, but so can the thought of being stuck in the cycle your body and mind are finding you in now.

On life's journey there can be bumps, hills and mountains for us to climb. At times, that climb may feel impossible and you may feel unable to do it alone. Reaching out for someone to help you move forward is not easy, it takes courage and strength. I would be honored to help you climb those bumps, hills and mountains. Together we can discover what you need to find inner peace and contentment.
