Therapy
Individuals
You've done everything right. You've accomplished everything you believed you needed to do to have the life you've always envisioned, and yet the life you desire is still so far off.When you look at your relationships you struggle with overthinking, overexplaining, codependence, perfectionism, loneliness, & maybe even abuse. You've tried to change to make choices you believed would lead to happiness, and yet you're drifting further away. You need help.
Individual therapy is the perfect place to identify your goals, clarify your intentions, and build the confidence to make decisions that align with where you want to be.
Couples
You love each other, and you want to make it work. You just don't know how. There's been infidelity and there's so much shame that neither of you know how to address. The layers are so deep you think it may be easier to quit and walk away. Or maybe the issues seem so small that this "should be" easier to navigate. No matter the issue, you want to stay together; you simply need support.
In couple's therapy you'll learn about yourselves, and each other as you work with me. You'll develop the skills to better communicate, listen, and to show up for yourselves and one another.

Welcome to The Other Side
I started The Other Side Therapy because like you, I was hungry for love. I searched all over, looking for someone to love me & I didn't realize it was impossible, simply because I didn't love myself. I went to therapy. While on my journey I answered the call to this work, & in addition to coursework, I submitted to countless hours of study & practice in the art of learning to love myself; it has been my greatest reward. I know what it is to look in the mirror to see pain, & I used it to transform. Now I'm equipped to hold your pain, so you too can transform and discover the love you've been searching for. I've got you!
Transformation
I’m going through a transformation
I don’t know what’s on the other side.
I can’t stay here though
Here lives too much pain.
The residue of bad decisions from the residue of bad experiences.
They hurt me, they did
And though hurt’s been my home for so long
I’ve got to get outta here.
On to where I wanna be
The unknown, and yet I know I don’t wanna be here anymore.
Love never lived here
Only sadness here, veiled by love
Because I always loved.
Loved and loved until it almost made me hate myself.
Gotta date myself
Let God restore me.
Place me in His cocoon
A hard shell
So that I can be transformed.
