You deserve to thrive, not just survive. Together, we will create a plan to help your life look and feel better. 
For too long, mental health and emotions have been seen in a negative light.
These strong emotions have a terrible stigma attached to them but in counseling you’re coming into an environment that has emotional safety. You’re not going to be judged or shamed for your emotions.

My hope is that you would take the opportunity to take a deeper dive
into who you are and who you are becoming and what these emotions are telling you about yourself and your environment.  
​
I’ve seen that for so many years that most of us have suppressed emotions, but we also have suppressed truth. And I want to invite you into that truth. That truth will help you rewrite parts of your narrative that aren’t working you and move towards healing emotions and mindsets.

That’s what I’m looking forward to working with you and helping you say what you need to say.


​Here are some of the common emotions people come see me, but I understand
​that this list is definitely not a list of all the emotions someone might want help improving. 


​Anger

Anger is often very misunderstood.
Have you felt you want to change but don't know how, and we think it should be easier? 
​
Anger will often act as a defense mechanism or just an overall coping skill. I have a nonjudgmental approach when working with anger. 

Together we can develop new approaches that improve your life
so you're not stuck always using anger as your default coping skill.
Your relationship with yourself, with your spouse, children, friends, and coworkers will improve.
PictureTogether we will break the cycle of hurtful anger and repair your relationships.
​


​Anxiety

Anxiety can show up in many different ways and you may not even know what you're going through is an expression of anxiety, but those around you or you may even feel that something is just off and it's not working anymore.

​We will discuss what is going on with your thoughts, emotions, and physiological body to help you gain a deeper understanding it and strategies to not let it own you.

​Depression

There are often many legitimate reasons why sadness and feeling blue come. Sadness and feeling down are natural and expected emotions that we all go through. Many describe it as like a fog and they're feeling lost or numb in it.
If you or your loved ones have been feeling like something is off lately it could be a form depression. 
Maybe nothing's changed but nothing is the same either and you're wanting help to get back to yourself.

​Together we can explore what's going and also strategies to help you become more mindful of your patterns and how to develop behaviors and skills to not let depression take over your life anymore.

​Grief and loss

I've seen that we all go through grief and loss much more often than we realize. I've also seen that we're expected to just know how to "get through it or over it" just because it is common. However, grief and loss are not just something you get over; you need help to properly identify what was lost, mourn, experience range of emotions and thoughts related to that loss, and how to adjust to life in the present. 

Grief and loss may be from the death of a loved one.
Grief and loss can also be from the death of a relationship, job,
or even a stage of life and you're having difficulty transitioning into the next one.
There's no need to go through grief and loss alone.

Please, don't go through it alone. 

It's best to have someone to help you remember, respect, and adapt your full mourning experience and you not feel judged for not doing it at the pace of everyone else. I want to offer you the hope that you will learn how to live after loss.
