Others view you as someone to turn to: dedicated and reliable. You’re a good listener. You often put others needs before yours. You have high standards for others and even higher standards for yourself. You’ve accomplished almost everything you’ve ever put your mind to, despite many obstacles. You have a great life…but you struggle with being connected to the life you’ve created. YOU ARE SEEKING HEALING AND LONGING FOR CLARITY. That’s where I can help. My aim as a therapist is to give you a space to feel heard so you can break the patterns that are holding you back.
