Overwhelmed? Anxious? Stressed? Has your anxiety washed over you with no rhyme or reason, only to leave you feeling exhausted and confused? This world is hard enough, but when you add anxiety to the mix-things tend to get interesting (and probably not in the way you would like).
My perspective in therapy is that everyone has their own “coping skills toolbox” and it is my job to help you polish the rusty tools that you haven’t used in a while and make room for new and improved tools that are just for you. I will be your accountability partner by supporting and challenging you when needed.
While sometimes our lives can feel out of control, many times all we need is a little boost from an outside person to help us move through overwhelming situations. I believe the most important part of therapy is the relationship between therapist and client, so please reach out for a free 15 minute consultation to see if we would be a good fit!
