Sometimes anxiety, difficult emotions, and painful experiences keep showing up, even when you try your best to manage them. Maybe you’ve become exhausted from constantly pushing them away or toughing it out. You no longer want to feel dominated by fear, worry, or sadness and you are ready to return to (or discover!) a life that closely aligns with your personal values. Having someone who truly listens to you without judgement can be a strong foundation for this work. I believe counseling best honors each client’s unique strengths, challenges, and goals through a collaborative process. Together we can focus on areas of your life contributing to your sense of wellness, and change your relationship with those painful emotions and thoughts. We can also address negative past experiences that continue to impact your life. For trauma-focused treatment, we can explore EMDR or CPT as possible modalities. I work best with introspective adults, those ready to heal from trauma, and older teens/ young adults navigating major life changes. If you're ready for the next step, we can connect over a complimentary consultation call to see if I'm the right fit for you.
