One of the most noble pursuits and individual can have is to strive to lead a meaningful and purposeful life.  This can be an extremely difficult task, both in terms of determining what this personally means and then figuring out how to get there.  When we feel stuck and overwhelmed, other negative and self-limiting states also take shape including anxiety and depression, leaving us full of bad habits and desperate for change.  In the therapeutic work with Andrew, the aim is to uncover the root causes that inhibit fulfillment and to further apply practical strategies that will permit change and foster personal growth.

Hello. If you struggle with emotion regulation, anger, anxiety and or sadness I’m here to help. Together we can unpack these emotions and explore the ways they are impacting your life and how to find relief.
My practice is informed by Somatic Experiencing (SE) which aims to gently resolve these aforementioned symptoms of stress that can accumulate in our bodies and nervous systems.
