Personal Statement
When life feels heavy, it can be like trying to stay afloat in open water. On the outside, everything may look fine, but internally, you feel weighed down by stress, conflict, and emotional fatigue. You may be doing everything you can just to keep your head above the surface, while still feeling stuck, drifting, and unsure how to move toward healing. Sometimes the waves are coming from what is happening now, marriage tension, dating uncertainty, repeated arguments, betrayal, or major life transitions. Other times, the waves are older, early life trauma, painful childhood experiences, abandonment, or seasons where you had to stay on guard. Those past experiences can show up in the present as anxiety, shutdown, irritability, overthinking, or difficulty feeling safe and connected.
If this is where you are, it makes sense, and you are not alone. Therapy can be a steady buoy in the water, a place to breathe, gather strength, and stop carrying everything by yourself. It can also be a compass when you feel lost, and a bridge from surviving to living with more clarity, stability, and hope. Together, we can work toward healthier ways to cope, communicate, and reconnect with yourself and the people you care about.
My name is Regis, and I provide a safe place for clients to slow down, feel supported, and do meaningful work toward healing and growth. I am a compassionate, experienced psychotherapist dedicated to working with couples, adults, older adults, and young adults. I also bring a Christian perspective for clients who want faith to be a part of the therapeutic process, integrating spiritual values with evidence-based care in a respectful, grounded way.
