Services - Brighter Path Counseling

Achievement and success don’t have to come at the expense of your mental health.

You can be successful in your career and have balance without sacrificing your happiness.

It may seem unrealistic at this point as you’re looking at your desk and computer with a million post-it notes everywhere, an overflowing schedule and to-do list, and a busy mind.

You don’t have to feel this way, and it’s entirely possible to learn the tools and gain the support you need to feel better.

I can help you work through the emotions, thoughts, and challenges that are getting in the way of you being present in your life without stress, overthinking, and anxiety.

When you take the next step forward, I will help you uncover the root of your overthinking, difficulty relaxing, and struggles with self-doubt and overwhelm.

We will work together to help you gain clarity, calm, and relief from stress and overwhelm.

Having the support of a therapist allows you to make positive changes in your life so you can stop struggling and begin thriving.

My Philosophy

You deserve to live a life of calm and balance.

Do you wake up at 3AM thinking about the worst-case scenario? You’re worrying about everything that’s on your plate the next day or that you’ve forgotten to do.

Sometimes it feels like it’s never good enough, and the anxiety and overwhelm are too much to handle.

It can feel hard to let go of the pressure and be kind to yourself because you’re afraid of the consequences.

The pressure builds up to the point where you start taking it out on those you care about: your partner, parents, colleagues, friends, and loved ones.

It’s hard for you to feel present in your life and be there for those who need you because you’re so consumed with your thoughts, worries, and the million things you need to get done.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

Specialties

Anxiety Therapy

Anxiety can feel debilitating and can make it difficult to feel focused and fully present. It is possible to treat and significantly reduce feelings of anxiety. I can help you identify the root of your anxiety and learn skills so that you can prevent future episodes and feel more calm.

High-Functioning Anxiety Therapy

High-functioning anxiety occurs when you are successful and high-achieving on the outside, but on the inside you are struggling with anxiety, difficulty setting boundaries, and overworking as a coping mechanism. As a specialist in high-functioning anxiety, I can help you uncover the roots of your anxiety so you can feel calm from within.

Burnout Therapy

Burnout can occur when you are giving too much in a job and/or caregiver role and not taking time for yourself to rest. This can result in mental health disorders including anxiety, depression, and panic. I can help you recover from burnout and set boundaries to prevent it from recurring in the future.

Therapy for Entrepreneurs

Entrepreneurial stress can manifest when the pursuit of success leads to chronic overwork and neglecting your well-being. This relentless drive can mask underlying anxiety, stress, and a loss of work-life balance, often leading entrepreneurs to feel isolated in their struggles. As a therapist specializing in supporting entrepreneurs, I can guide you to understand the sources of your stress and equip you with strategies to achieve balance, maintain your entrepreneurial spirit, and cultivate a sense of inner calm and resilience.

Therapy for Professionals

Professional life, with its demands for constant productivity and perfection, can often lead to a silent struggle with stress, imposter syndrome, and burnout. Despite outward success, you may find yourself facing internal battles with anxiety, feeling overwhelmed by expectations, and struggling to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Specializing in the unique challenges faced by professionals, I offer a supportive space to explore the roots of these struggles, empowering you to develop strategies that enhance well-being, restore balance, and foster a sense of accomplishment and peace in both your professional and personal life.

Trauma-Informed Hypnotherapy

Trauma-Informed Hypnotherapy offers a gentle and effective way to heal from deep-seated emotional wounds, reduce anxiety, and manage chronic pain. By accessing your subconscious mind, this therapeutic approach helps you uncover and resolve the root causes of your struggles, allowing you to create lasting positive change. Whether you’re dealing with unresolved trauma, persistent stress, or the feeling of being stuck, I can guide you through a safe and supportive hypnotherapy process to help you achieve inner calm, resilience, and a renewed sense of well-being.

My techniques

I will provide you with support and education utilizing evidence-based methods.

During your first session, I’ll explain the therapy process to you and ask you questions to get to know you better. This session will be 60 minutes so I can get a full understanding of your needs and how I can help you. Every session after will be 45-50 minutes and I recommend in the beginning we meet once weekly.

We will come up with a plan based on your needs and specific circumstances to help you reach your mental health goals. In addition to guiding you in accomplishing your goals, I will educate you on the relevant psychological concepts and techniques related to your area of concern. I don’t over-complicate things, I present facts in a way that is easy to understand and informative.

I aim to provide you with the tools to make decisions and cope with anxiety and stress beyond our weekly sessions and well into the future. I use elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Mindful Self-Compassion, and Positive Psychology.

What we discuss in therapy is 100% confidential. You may feel vulnerable initially, but our pace, what you disclose, and how we approach solutions and coping is up to you.
