About
When life throws a curveball, it can leave you feeling unsteady and disconnected. Whether you are facing a career shift, a major move, or a divorce, it's natural to experience anxiety, sadness, and frustration. Big changes can also impact your self-esteem, making you question who you are and your sense of direction. If you are struggling to regain your footing or feel like your old self again, know that you’re not alone and many people face this uncertainty during times of transition, and it’s a normal part of adjusting to change. Life’s transitions can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face them alone. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we can work through the anxiety and emotional challenges keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll help you restore balance, reconnect with your strengths and values, and move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and purpose. Ready to take the next step? Call me today for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit and how I can support your healing journey. Specialties: I work with clients who may be struggling with feelings related to their past experiences or transitions. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement. Credentials & Experience: I have over 8 years of experience helping adults, teens, and older adults who are struggling with life's stressors. I am licensed in Louisiana. Oklahoma, and Idaho.
