Meet Your Therapist
You're here because you're consumed by racing thoughts, self-doubt, stress, and general feelings of anxiety. You find yourself overthinking everything and end up feeling exhausted, on edge, bad about yourself, and unmotivated as a result.
You're trying so hard to keep it together, but are noticing that you need help. You're here because you are ready to take the next step and work with a professional so that you can feel good about yourself. If this sounds like you, I would like to truly commend you for even entertaining the idea to seek help, as that's not necessarily easy to do.
You've already taken a huge step just by being here, and I'm here to help you through the rest. It would be my absolute honour to support you through this but first, here is a little more information about me to see if you would like to move forward and work with me.
