Are you tired of struggling to thrive in relationships with friends, family, and lovers? Are your emotions running your life? Interacting with others can be overwhelming when you have experienced trauma, grief, depression or anxiety. This can lead to coping through addictions or harmful behaviors. I believe we all have the capacity to change and that focusing on strengths can give clients a new outlook on life. Together, we can practice mindfulness, reflection, and positive coping skills. I collaborate with clients to build positive experiences in a caring therapeutic relationship through talking, playing (children), and art. View 9 Photos I provide a nurturing, safe, and empowering space where clients may gain insights into repeating patterns in their lives. Clients may become more calm, confident, and present focused through a uniquely created treatment plan including mindfulness, creative self expression, evidence based practices, Psychodynamic, Lifespan Integration, DBT, and Sand Therapy. There are so many kinds of emptiness filling our lives right now. There is grief, confusion, separation, anxiety. All understandable and real. Reaching out for help is a step toward re-connecting with others.
