If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you have made the right choice by being here. You may have grown up watching the adults in your life struggle in their own relationships and lives. It's not the best template for success! As a child, you may have learned that it's not okay to express anger, or you may have learned that it's not okay to cry or feel emotions.
And now you are an adult struggling to communicate your feelings and needs when you may not always have access to them yourself. You struggle with the fear of failure, the sense of shame of not being "okay." My hope for you is that through our work together you will find the answers you need to be confident in your being, to know that you are okay, to find peace and joy in your life and relationships.
I understand no two individuals are the same, and I tailor our sessions together to address challenges unique to you. We will work together to understand the root cause of your struggles and address those issues with long-lasting strategies, helping you get closer to the life you've always wanted.
