Accepting clients Last Updated 26 days ago

I offer several ways to work on whatever is keeping you from your best. My focus is on present moment strategies to manage living in this world while having a dynamic connection with Spirit. I offer traditional therapy/coaching that has a pay per service sliding scale. If you are looking for increasing your ability to manage your emotions and navigate relationships of all kinds, give me a call and I'll tell you more about how I work.

I am trained in many techniques that help people manage anxiety, depression, overall stress, nightmares, intrusive thoughts etc. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Meditation, and breathing techniques are a few of the skills I use and often teach each client I work with.

At times life is a rough road for all of us. Give me a call and let's see if we are a good match to work together on strategies to make you more successful and at ease.
