and meaningful relationships emerge. And, each time, I found a little more clarity for my path forward, often a path more powerful and more rewarding than I could have ever imagined before.

Therapy has profoundly supported my journey and guided me when I felt lost. It seems so often that out of our greatest suffering emerge opportunities for our greatest possibilities. And, while we would never wish the pain we’ve experienced on others (let alone ourselves), in retrospect we find we no longer wish to change what happened, because it has helped shape all that we are today. If you aren’t here yet, I would love to help you find your way.  

​

The last few years, like most of us, have deeply tested me – professionally as well as personally. All the turmoil, crises, and pain many of us experienced both collectively and individually, had me looking at everything with a clarifying perspective about what really matters in this life, and it created a burning desire to seek out new ways to focus on it.

Two things I’ve learned are:

1) It’s okay to say “NO!” Do it as often and whenever or wherever it feels right. It’s also OK to change your mind. You can say, “This no longer works for me,” and look for experiences and relationships that do. You can go out there and find your place, your people, and find what lights YOU up! 

2) Life is about connection and purpose. In the last moments of your life, imagine what life you would have wanted to have lived and with whom? What do you wish you had focused on, and what things you had let go of easier? Your attention and energy today get pulled in so many different directions, all day long… rather than treating your energy as a commodity – fuel it, nourish, and protect it like the precious resource it is! Come back to your center, get clear about what matters most to you, focus on that, and cut the rest. 

We’re all human, and we all go through shit. Some of it may be worse than others, but it affects us all. But no matter how hard life gets, when you open yourself up to healing and growth, that investment can pay you back in beautiful dividends! Life has a way of rewarding you for showing up, being courageous, and being vulnerable. To start your healing journey, all you need is to show up for yourself. Simply trying can make all the difference.
