Life is complicated and seldom straightforward. We are often left facing challenges that are surprising and difficult to navigate. It may be a new role, a disappointment at work, a problem in a relationship, or some lasting echoes from the past that still show up, that causes us to feel anxious, angry, sad, confused and “stuck”. We try our best to manage by using coping strategies that turn out to be more problematic than helpful. We are then left thinking, what happened? Will I ever feel like my old self? Why can’t I just get over this? If you are anxious, struggling to focus, overwhelmed by work or family, I am trained to help There are many ways to approach a problem. Often the hardest first step to take can be acknowledging when one needs help. My clinical training offers integrated and flexible approaches to treatment, utilizing a trauma-informed perspective when appropriate, and incorporating components of Family Systems, Relational, CBT, Expressive and Mindfulness approaches I firmly believe that warmth, curiosity, honesty and a sense of humor can go a long way in supporting individuals on their path. Equally, I believe an individual’s life experiences both inform their current perspective and can be harnessed to inspire innovative thinking, new perspectives, and more accurate problem solving that encourages living a fuller life
