“There are many changes in the ebbs and flows of life that can bring us to a place where we realize we’re stuck and don’t know how to move forward. Part of the reason I became a therapist was my own experience needing help to gain perspective and grow when I felt like I couldn’t see where else to go. Now I seek to connect with the clients I serve to help them feel seen and explore new paths together.
I specialize in helping you recognize emotional patterns that you may be struggling with, and providing inspiration to build new ones. Often these patterns are shaped by our past experiences, and bringing them up to the surface allows us to examine how they continue to play out in our daily lives. Once you have a chance to reflect and understand yourself, we can work together toward goals to take action and create the changes you desire.
Life can be complicated and confusing at times. I'm here to help you gain perspective and to give you the tools to build connections you desire. Making changes takes dedication, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you're ready to take that step with me, I would love to help you. Please click the button below to schedule a free consultation.
