Anxiety can be all consuming.

Maybe you have tried to turn your brain off or distract yourself without success. Maybe you have labeled yourself as “just an anxious person” due to never feeling relief. Maybe you are experiencing lack of sleep, finding yourself falling into “what if” rabbit holes, or you’re struggling to concentrate on current tasks because you’re being consumed with thoughts?

Anxiety often arises from the feeling of uncertainty we experience in our daily lives. I often joke that if we could just control what our lives hold for us, we probably wouldn’t experience the emotion of anxiety.

Most of the things we dwell on are completely out of our control. You can, however, learn to recognize and manage your anxiety instead of letting anxiety manage you. Using a Cognitive Behavioral Approach, I will help you regulate and regain control of your anxious mind. With a little help, you can form a new path. You will be able to regulate difficult emotions, regardless of your ever-changing environment, so that you can get back to the joyful life you deserve.

Are you a partner, sister, brother, child, parent, or friend? We all hold many roles in social connections within our lives. Sometimes relationships become difficult to manage. Are you finding that you’re experiencing relationship distress with someone close to you?

Connection with others is essential for our survival.

Learning how set boundaries and establish emotion regulation techniques will allow you to maintain these relationships. Using EFIT, Emotion Focused Therapy for Individuals, we will be able to repair relationships and move forward together.

So many of the life transitions we inevitably face can be hard to navigate. We may need help with adjusting to new phases or waiting for our next phase to begin. Often we find ourselves saying, “I’ll be happy when…”. However, once ‘when’ finally happens, we have a tendency to quickly shift to the next ‘when’. Learning to focus on what’s currently in front of you, instead of what’s always ahead, helps us all live more fulfilling lives.

Making decisions in order to accomplish our passions and dreams can be scary. Our fears can take hold of our minds and bodies, and can prevent us from moving forward. Often we might feel frozen in a job we don’t really enjoy, or maybe even in a relationship. Since we do not know what is out there, we stay in a place of comfort, or lack of change, in order to protect ourselves. I will help you through these choppy waters. Careers, relationships, parenting, can all be roles we feel stuck in. I will help you find clarity in what your path forward might look like.

Becoming a parent can be a difficult role to transition into. Whether you are longing to be parent, or a parent already, our minds and bodies go through many changes along the way. Perinatal Care supports women experiencing all of the transitions that come with motherhood. Some experience loss or difficulty with the journey of starting or growing their family. Working through difficult emotions and body changes will help you be prepared for these adjustments as they come. I am here to support you on the lifelong road that you are on as a parent.
