Practice information:

Feeling overwhelmed with anxious thoughts and avoiding social interaction and/or everyday tasks due to anxiety or depression can take away from the joys of everyday life. It might be hard to find the motivation to get out of bed in the mornings. Where you used to enjoy activities with friends or loved ones, you feel numb and disconnected from your true and authentic self. You may even find yourself stuck in unhealthy relationships that just don’t feel right. Sometimes, emotions such as anger can go from 0 to 100 in a matter of moments.  Regardless of life’s challenges, we all have the capacity to grow and thrive.

Know that you are so much more than your anxiety, anger, or depression. Together, we’ll re-establish stronger and healthier bonds with the parts of you that you love the most, so you can go back to enjoying your favorite activities, being in more supportive, nourishing relationships and feeling the inner peace that you’ve been looking for. In our work together, we’ll go on a journey towards self-discovery and growth, helping you reconnect to your inner resilience, building on your strengths and providing you with practical tools to regain control of the life that you want. With therapy, there’s always hope and I’m here to help you connect with the parts of yourself that you feel like you may have lost along the way.
