Feeling down? Anxious? Exhausted? Doubting your self and your ability to make important changes in your life? Despite your best intentions, are you always getting in your own way? Maybe you take much better care of others than yourself. Perhaps "you have it all", but still feel empty or bored? Are your thoughts dominated by self criticisms, fear, and troublesome memories? Perhaps, you have read self help books and have tried trendy quick-fixes. Why continue to go at it alone? Therapy can help you recognize the patterns of relating to your self and others that contribute to your ongoing distress.

Some days, it feels like there is a never-ending storm cloud hanging over you. No matter how hard you try, you can’t shake overwhelming emotions. One moment, you’re on top of the world, and the next you’re plunged into deep despair without any reason. It’s exhausting to feel like something terrible is always about to happen. Even the smallest setback triggers a cascade of negative thoughts that feel inescapable. The voices in your head are constant and upsetting. You feel helpless, exhausted, and misunderstood—even by your family and loved ones.

Even without a pandemic, life can present with struggle, hardship, or overwhelming challenges. We all have many parts, some react, some retreat, some feel stuck, and some feel resigned to life's circumstances. All of our parts are well-intended, but sometimes they cast a shadow, and all we see is one part of ourselves. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, generalized stress, hopelessness, or relationship issues, obstacles don't have to define you. We will help you build upon strengths, gain new perspective, redefine stories that no longer fit, and form a stronger, healthier connection with self and others.

A sense of well-being, that is the goal that I want to achieve in clients. Combining physical, mental, and emotional well-being becomes a balancing act in today's world. Physical needs; living in a safe environment, nourishment for the body, sensible physical activity, and medical conditions, must be addressed if the work needed to look inward is to be successful. Addressing issues surrounding these common needs create the atmosphere for personal growth. My desire is to work together to find out where it is that my client wants to go, and discovering how to get there.
