Growing into yourself is not an easy process. This is the time you’re figuring out where you fit into the world – which career path to choose, which friends circle to keep, where to live, how to transform yourself into an independent adult…

You’re making bigger decisions that have greater consequences and learning how to handle the repercussions of your actions. It makes sense for this time to be fraught with anxiety, depression, fear, and loneliness.

Maybe you know that your partner isn’t treating you well, but you’re unsure of what a healthy relationship feels like. Or you’re aware that your friendships aren’t fulfilling, but you’re unsure of your own boundaries and how to voice them in relationship.

It can be confusing to stand up for yourself when you don’t quite know how things can be better. But you do know that things just don’t feel right – that something is missing.

I will help you explore your feelings of confusion and get clear on what’s not working for you. I will lead you toward the feelings under the confusion: the sadness, fear, anxiety… so that you can better understand your experience.

We can clarify your relationship values and help you learn ways to ask for what you want by setting healthy boundaries and communicating your needs effectively. We can explore your passions and interests and help you identify the right path forward. Together, we can help you transform into the person you wish to be.
