Re-author Your Life: Empowering women in reclaiming their lives.

Healing feels like walking this earth a little lighter after unpacking what keeps you feeling stuck. Freedom is being able to see possibilities and experience hope again. Healing is a gift to yourself and shapes all other relationships we have.

The Struggle is Real

Since you have found my website I imagine you are struggling and are seeking support.

Perhaps you have reached a point in your life where you recognize you have given so much of yourself away that you are not sure who you are anymore? Maybe your senses feel dulled and it is difficult to remember what makes you smile and feel alive? 

If you have experienced a divorce or are grieving the death of a loved one, you might be feeling so incredibly lonely, even in a crowded room. Loss of any kind can feel destabilizing and uncertainty is pretty damn scary.

Maybe it takes a great deal of energy to go through the motions of your day because you are feeling overwhelmed as a caregiver, single parent, or your job is demanding and/or unfulfilling and you just feel stuck? Does it feel like you have been doggy paddling your way through life?

Often people seek out counseling because they have hit a wall after trying everything they know to do to fix things. They are tired of feeling depressed, anxious, and really are at an impasse and need some relief. Sometimes they know what they need to do, but need some help getting there.


How can counseling help?

Learn how to experience emotions rather than feeling overwhelmed by them

Learn to trust yourself again

Feel safe emotionally and physically

Learn to honor your needs

Making choices that come from a place of knowing

How to hold boundaries as a form of self compassion

Find meaning and purpose

Engage in healthy, loving relationships

Process and grieve a loss

Gain awareness of how you experience life and why that matters

Learn new skills that help you navigate challenges in life

I believe in providing a safe space for my clients to share their story without fear of being judged or shamed. Being seen and understood is a fundamental need for all of us. Untangling what holds you back brings freedom and allows you to re-author your life in a meaningful way. There is hope in healing. I'd like to help you get there.
