About

How could your life be different? Do you know the answer or are you asking yourself this question every day? On the outside, it looks like you have it all together and your life is going great. But behind the smile, you are hiding insecurity, anxiety, frustration and maybe even hopelessness that anything could change. There is a sense of helplessness and loneliness about this way of living and it’s hard to share this with other people around you because they look like they have it all figured out. You’re tired of pretending and people pleasing, and want or need to start being real. I work with women like you to help them believe that change is possible and that there is a path to a more meaningful, authentic life. Whether you're seeking support and compassion, or you would like guidance and accountability, or someone who will listen and respond empathically and thoughtfully, I'd like to be there with you. I bring my real self into the therapy process, (and I hope you will too), believing that it is the genuine trust and connection between us that fosters true change. You deserve to feel better and I believe you can! One step at a time…When you’re ready to take the leap into some meaningful work together, email me today! Making the decision to reach out and ask questions may lead you to the answers that you’re looking for. Where in your life are you still asking for permission? Permission to be yourself and to show up with all your imperfections and be accepted exactly the way you are now.
