Have you ever thought there was a more authentic version of yourself? Maybe you’ve glimpsed this version in the eyes of someone who loves you—like a grandparent, teacher, or friend. They see only the best in you and you feel strong, confident, and content around them.

Spoiler alert: this can be you all the time!

Due to trauma, stress, or unhelpful conditioning, many of us develop maladaptive coping strategies and negative thought patterns, which keeps us from living authentically. Together, we’ll examine how these thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other so you can replace them with healthier patterns, get unstuck, and build the life you’ve always dreamed about.

We’ll also look at the life you want to live, build skills to reach your goals, and unlock your potential. These tools will help you manage life’s ups and downs and build healthy relationships in all areas of your life.

My vision is for you to feel loved and accepted, find meaningful and rewarding work, and internalize that the good things in life are meant for you. In a world that pulls our focus in so many directions, we’ll create a safe, unconditional place just for you and your north star.
