Have you ever just felt stuck? Do you ever think therapy is just not for me or think to yourself, is it worth it? Well, believe me, it is. One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. My belief is that healing is a collaborative endeavor that requires honest caring without judgment. During sessions we will focus on creative therapeutic techniques in order to help you become the best possible you you can be.
Since 2012 I have had extensive training working with children and families who have experienced trauma, truancy, anxiety/depression, victims of domestic violence, chemical dependency, eating disorders, struggles with parenting skills as well as other stressors that may affect us at some point in our lives.
Reaching out can feel hard but once you make the first step we will begin to take this journey together. I provide a warm, caring and judgement free zone in order to get this process started.
