Do you feel that something is holding you back? That your best Self awaits? When life presents challenges we can get stuck in emotional ruts and self-defeating thought patterns. Our relationships can falter, work feels insurmountable, or anxiety overwhelms. You do not need to take this on alone. I will support you in identifying what's holding you back and develop skills to become more adept to handle life's stressors.
My approach is relational, genuine, and empathetic. I engage with humor and intellect. I connect with people from all walks of life, drawing on 20 years of leadership experience in the public and private sectors. My clinical focus includes anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma, and life transitions, and career burnout and ambiguity.
I care about my clients and it shows in how I approach this important work. Much of the progress made in therapy occurs when you feel a real connection to your therapist. Reach out for a free consultation to see if I would be a good fit. I can be contacted by phone, email, or through my website: www.brightspotcounseling.com
