About me
I am here to help you find freedom and confidence in your life through the anxiety, trauma, and life challenges you are experiencing.
You are exhausted and feel worn out by your overwhelm in life. You see that you can’t figure this out alone with your consistent struggle of anxiety and stress. You are ready for support, to be heard, to find a way through your emotions and endless nagging thoughts.
I became a therapist because I don’t want you to go through this alone. You have questioned yourself and have maybe even thought this is “crazy.” Will anyone understand me? My desire to help is because you deserve to be heard and know that you are not crazy. I see the reality of anxiety debilitating your day. Questioning every interaction stops you from doing what you desire with ease and excitement, but instead, you’re experiencing dread and doubt. I became a therapist because I found things that really help! Practical, everyday things. This help is not only to stop your anxiety but also to help you understand yourself better and find more fullness in your life--this is an everlasting gift!
You don’t have to do this alone. You don’t have to continue in the overwhelm of life, disconnected from your relationships, and lacking confidence in yourself. What you are experiencing is real, and it is hard. I’m honored and able to help you find your way through the overwhelmed.
Clients come to counseling, asking: “Why won’t my worry, stop?” “Why do I care so much of what others think?” “How do I control my overwhelming emotions? “Why do things seem so confusing or hard now?”
Here is how I help:
Creating a safe and understanding environment for you to be heard and felt.
Allowing you to understand your own thoughts and emotions by noticing and identifying them.
Developing coping through deep breathing, body awareness, and visualization.
Learning how to gain self-understanding instead of being self-critical.
Learning how to set boundaries for yourself and your relationships.
Process difficult memories or beliefs about yourself.
You are able to heal. You are able to find confidence. You are able to cope. Reach you today!
