“I’m not sure why I just shared all of that with you” is a comment I have heard many times in my life and is one of the reasons I chose mental health counseling as a profession. When someone is hurting and senses they are in the presence of another who is truly curious about and accepting of them, they feel seen and understood. This is where healing takes place.
​
People in all stages of life journey through uncharted paths that can lead to confusion, anxiety, and despair. Getting relief from the pain that can feel devastating and hopeless seems like a never-ending war. It is possible to feel whole again. It is possible to live a life worth living.
Although I work with people at any stage in life, I specialize in working with teens and young adults who struggle with suicidal ideation, self-harm, and Borderline Personality Disorder. I also have years of experience working with those in addiction and those coming out of human trafficking. I would welcome your invitation to walk with you in your journey!
