How many times have you heard, “These are the best years of your life”? And who says this? [Hint: adults who went to college many years ago.] But if you ask a college student, there’s a good chance they will talk more about anxiety or depression than enjoying the best years of their life. According to the American College Health Association’s 2018 study, 63 percent of college students said they had “felt overwhelming anxiety” and more than 41 percent said they had felt so depressed that it wa...

I help dedicated young people learn to loosen the hold of intense thoughts and anxieties to feel empowered and competent in what they do. It’s hard to get things done because of thoughts and worries that hold you back even though you know you want to let them go. And even when you do accomplish your tasks efficiently the inner toll it takes feels much greater than the task itself. Sometimes the physical toll of all this mental baggage is apparent and you feel it in your body. With dedication pra...

Grief can make us feel lost and confused, but we can feel better. People typically think grief and loss are solely about losing a loved one. But we endure ambiguous losses more often than acknowledged. It can occur through experiences such as depression, anxiety, a relationship break-up, pandemics, or other life events. Although the emotions might seem to be everlasting, healing is achievable. I believe everyone needs support from others at some point in their lives. That does not mean they are ...
