Are you ready to move through life making decisions in alignment with your deepest values and live more peacefully and authentically? So many of us have been through traumatic life experiences that cause us to mal-adapt simply to survive. However, over time, our old survival mechanisms begin to hurt more than help. We can forget or not know how to set healthy boundaries in our relationships. We can neglect our self and overextend ourselves emotionally, mentally, and physically. Therapy can help you uncover your self and remove any barriers to living life intentionally!
Although support and guidance can come in many forms, the therapeutic relationship is unique. I work to create a safe space for you to heal and grow. I also work to be present with you and listen without agenda or judgement. This allows you to become more self aware, compassionate, and accepting of yourself. From this place, you can accomplish anything!
Although thinking about coming to therapy and sharing your story can feel overwhelming, you can rest assured that I encourage you to go at your own pace. So, take a deep breath, exhale fully, and reach out. Call or check out my website to learn more and schedule an appointment. I look forward to meeting you soon!
