May I ask?
Do you feel exhausted by your anxious thoughts and often feel uneasy, as if there’s a pit in your stomach that won’t go away?
Do you struggle with low self-esteem and depressed mood, preventing you from fully showing up as your authentic self and thriving at work and in relationships?
Do you feel loneliness and wish you could make more meaningful connections?
What if I tell you that you can learn ways to calm your anxieties, be more confident, find greater peace, and learn to better connect with friends, family, and partner?
I am here to tell you that it is possible!
Throughout 17 years of my clinical work, I had the privilege of meeting clients, just like you, who deeply struggled with low self-esteem, anxiety, loneliness, and difficulties in relationships.
But I also witnessed many of my clients making steady progress towards the life they desired, even when they weren’t sure what that would actually look like in the beginning!
I’m in this field of work because I truly feel alive when I use my skills to support my clients revive their healthier sense of self and increase their confidence at work and in relationships. It is also so meaningful for me to witness my clients enjoy greater connections with friends, family, and romantic partner.
So, I cannot wait to be partnering
with you as well.
As long as you are fully committed in doing this work and making small and steady changes over time with professional support,
I believe that you can live the life you’ve been hoping for!
I’ll support you to discover your calmer and more confident self. I can also help you gain insights and effective communication and interpersonal skills, so that you are better equipped to cultivate more meaningful relationships, if that’s what you are desiring.
I will tailor therapy to fit who you are and your needs, even if you may be currently unsure of what that progress might look like for you or what kind of life you’d like to design and create at this time.
We’ll clarify and figure these things out together.
