I take a collaborative approach to help you understand what you’re going through, develop strategies that fit your life, and create meaningful change.

You may find yourself feeling like you are surrounded by a forest of pressures and uncertainty in your life or not knowing what or who you can rely on.

Excessive pressures can leave you feeling like no matter what you do, you are letting others down or not meeting your own goals. It’s ok to let go, surrender, and allow help.
