You may be facing:
You’ve always relied on yourself. Actually, it's how you've gotten this far. But now you’re up at 11pm asking ChatGPT things like "how do I set better boundaries?“ Or "what should I do about my relationship?” Or, why is dating so hard, or being single, or my new marriage, or just "What is wrong with me?"

Our brains want to solve puzzles, even if the thoughts we might have ruminate around sounding more like a harsh critic than a helping hand. In this overwhelmingly fast paced culture there's stressors compounding the sense of urgency, too. It's not just you. And nothing is wrong with you for questioning why something feels very off.
Your insights are welcomed. Your questions are worth listening to. You don’t have to white knuckle the stress alone.
I work with individuals and couples struggling with conflicts, whether internal or between each other. Together we sort through what's stopping you on your path. We want to help you get clear and increase a sense of hope for your future.
