About

So many of us begin to reach out when life feels overwhelming. We experience procrastination, lack of motivation, low self-esteem, relational failure with primary social groups, loved ones, partners, employers, etc. We may begin to bury these feelings and begin to seek mind-diversions such as meaningless word games on our phones, binge watching Netflix when we ought to be accomplishing useful tasks for our own well-being, or online shopping. We may begin seeking pleasureable diversions such as over-eating food, drinking more alcohol, making excuses for smoking weed. The sense of losing our grip continues to settle in like a bad cold that won't go away. We continue to try to maintain our status quo to no avail. Where do we go to find the help we need, though we ourselves may not be able to articulate our need? There are thousands of therapists out there advertising help. The true issue is that you yourself are the bottom line in all of the conflicts, losses, and social delimas. My focus in therapy is that I am here for you, your inner world, your imperfections, flaws, past woundings, inner child scars that may have never healed which cause disruptions in your adult lives. Who are you, really? How can you access the courage you need to truly live out the reality of who you are? Where does that resolve and inner strength come from? Is this even important in this day and age? The work I do brings soul-healing, integration of the true self, strengthening existential responses to life's questions, offering support to explore past traumas that hinder your ability to grow, contribute and flourish, enriching not only your own lives but those of others as well. I am trained in EMDR trauma-informed therapy, Enneagram personality typology, spiritual and faith transitions, addiction recovery, family systems work, individualization, self-awareness and peace. Give yourself a chance for the type of growth and change that can transform and support the lifestyle that truly satisfies.
