“When your mental health app doesn’t get you to where you need to go, come find me.”

Three AM wasn’t the ideal time for you to finally fall asleep.
But that’s what your mind does. It races, it goes through everything that you should worry about, feel bad about, or feel like you failed at.
Fun.
And going about your day nervous, anxious, worried, and with a ton of negative thoughts is the icing on the cake.
It’s causing some less-than-fun moments with your partner, you don’t show up to your friend's poker night anymore, you didn’t take on that promotion at work…
This anxiety is holding you back and this isn’t what you pictured for your life.
Point blank - it sucks.
And let me chime in here real quick: anxiety is a good thing sometimes. It helps you be on top of sh*t, on top of your game, prepared, helps you get things done, helps you be responsible. And it shows you care - about all of it.
Even so, anxiety normally sucks.
You want some control. You don’t want to feel held back. You want your peace back.
Or maybe you’ve never really had that state of peace to begin with.
Then, in that case, you’re in for a serious treat.
Because you can feel at peace, confident, and at ease in your life.
You can speak up at work without wanting to puke.
You can go to bed at 9 pm (or hey, 8 pm works too! Or is that just me…?) and get 8-10 hrs of sleep! You can have more positive, fun, enjoyable thoughts swimming around in your head.
You can feel like people like you, that you didn’t offend someone, that you studied enough for that test, and that you are accepted.
You can feel all of this and then some.
Bring on the peace and let’s kick back.
So how might you get this zen-like state of being? Just a dollop of therapy sessions with me. Your shaman of chill, your guru of good times…
….ok so I’m not that magical. Just a therapist with a degree framed on the wall who knows exactly how to be the guide you need for your unique story.
I can help you get to the core level using Somatic Therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy.
Yes, we will get you some hands-on skills and tools to manage the anxiety ASAP and outside of sessions. AND we get to the core of the “where” and the “why” this anxiousness is coming up in the first place.
With some humor, some realness, some warmth, and some challenges to help you get to where you want to be.
You can find relief.
You can feel better.
You can feel like you are enough, worthy, and loved
You can manage anxiety so it’s not running your life.
Absolutely.
