There are times in life when we feel unsettled or we need more support. Things don't feel right, and we don't know why or what has changed. What we do know is that we don't want to feel alone, sad or afraid. We want something to change...and fast. Whatever it may be...a strained relationship, a loss, a change in our job, or a health diagnosis/limitation, we want to feel better. Or, maybe you are experiencing stress, anxiety, or depression due to a life transition or from the day-to-day responsibilities in your life.
When we take the time to discover and acknowledge the challenges we are facing, we can learn skills to help us cope. As your therapist, I am on this journey with you. You are not alone. Often times, when a person feels safe enough to share their deepest fears and worries with a trusted person, they begin to heal. The shame starts to go away, and a new sense of self begins to emerge, resulting in more confidence and peace. I offer a supportive and non-judgmental environment for my clients. You will find in our work together, that you are beginning to discover and explore the fears that keep you from moving forward in your relationships and in your life.
I challenge you to discover what keeps you from living your best life and what keeps you from honoring yourself, today.
Share There is no better time than the present to dedicate time to yourself. Healing is one thought, feeling, and belief away from where you want to be. By opening up and sharing, even when it is hard to do, we will find answers to the many questions you may have. It is through understanding and awareness that you will be able to take the next steps, and implement unexpected changes into our life.
Sharing is the beginning to a developing a deeper connection to oneself and with others. With time and a trusted person, sharing will create new opportunities and remove the constraints which hold us back from true growth, self-acceptance, and compassion. Our lives are enriched by working through the thoughts, feelings, and beliefs which become our obstacles and prevent us from having true intimacy and love in our relationships.
