Everyday life is filled with suffering and pain from devastating tragedies to personal demons.

Are you at a Breaking POint?

"Are you feeling like life has knocked the wind out of you? Have circumstances left you feeling broken, depleted, or stuck in patterns that just keep repeating?

Whether it's the weight of anxiety or depression, the corrosive cycle of unhelpful arguments, the aftermath of trauma, or a struggle with habits, thoughts, or substances that feel out of control, it can feel like your strength has been stolen. 

Maybe you're longing for more than just getting by, sensing a gap between where you are and a life filled with genuine joy and connection.

You're not alone. 

At Emerging Strength, we understand that life can throw some serious punches, leaving you feeling lost, confused, and disconnected – from yourself and from those you love. We're here to help you find strength again, to navigate the complexities, quiet the noise, and build the resilience you need to not just endure, but to truly thrive and build a life you love."

I Struggle, too...

That's right. I struggle, too. I learned a long time ago that there is no shame in struggling. The struggle is part of the human experience. It's common to all of us. But, keeping the struggle a secret makes it worse by isolating us from what is most important. Let me help you find your strength and build a life you love.

At Emerging Strength Life Coaching and Counseling, we understand life can be difficult and that everyone faces challenges at some point. Our compassionate therapists are here to help you navigate those challenges and find healing and hope. We offer a collaborative and personalized approach to therapy, which includes evidence-based/evidence informed practices.

We specialize in helping clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship issues, and more. Our goal is to help you build resilience, gain insight, and develop the tools you need to thrive. That's not all, solving problems isn't enough.

Six Big Benefits of Finding Your Strength

Master Your Mind & Emotions

How your functioning changes:

Less Overwhelm, More Calm: You'll learn practical mental skills to quiet the constant noise, manage racing thoughts, and reduce that anxious, on-edge feeling. You'll stop feeling paralyzed by decisions or social situations.

Respond, Don't React: Instead of snapping or shutting down when stressed, you'll gain the flexibility to pause, understand your triggers, and choose how you respond. This means fewer regrets and more productive outcomes in challenging situations.

Comfort in Your Own Skin: You'll develop a stronger sense of self-acceptance, leading to less self-criticism and more confidence in who you are, whether you're alone or in a crowd.

Show Up as Your Better Self: By understanding and leveraging your unique strengths, you'll approach daily tasks, social interactions, and challenges with greater effectiveness and authenticity. You'll feel more competent and capable in your living, working, and social environments.
