I work remotely with clients in New York, New Jersey & North Carolina. Oftentimes, even the strongest and most resilient need a helping hand. If you're feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, angry, sad or simply feeling unlike yourself, maybe it's time you take the hand of someone else to help get you back to feeling like yourself again. Therapy can be intimidating, time consuming and even scary however I promise it is the best investment you can ever make in yourself.
There comes a moment when you realize the way you have been coping is no longer working, no matter how hard you try to push through. Perhaps you feel stuck in patterns that don't align with the life you want. You want things to feel different in your relationships, your body, your choices, and your day-to-day life. You want to stop escaping, stop overthinking, and feel more connected to yourself, more at peace. You are looking for real change, and you want a therapist who can help you become more confident, more self aware, and ready to truly transform.
