Life is hard and while you’re capable of getting through it, it doesn’t have to be this hard. You’re surviving going to work, school, picking up the kids, turning in homework, and doing everything you need but maybe you’re feeling like you can’t catch your breath. If something big has happened or is happening this can snowball into making everyday life even more difficult. I know that feeling when something smacks you hard in the face and you have to find a way to sleep, wake up, and carry on your day like everything is okay. People might tell you to practice self-care, but what does that even look like?

Going to therapy won’t take these problems away necessarily, but can at least give you a moment to breathe and reset; it can give you a moment to learn from your past; it can give you a moment to decide what to do next. As a Marriage and Family Therapist I meet individuals, families, and couples where they are.

Whether you need me to sit with you, help to motivate you, or help to slow you down I’ll be there along the way. Therapy can look different at different times in your life. Sometimes it means healing from the past, sometimes it means preparing for the future, and sometimes it’s both. I hope you take time for yourself, because I guarantee you deserve love and care.
