  • Difficulty managing grief and loss, stopping you from moving forward.
  • Low self-esteem and self-doubt creating fear of failure.

  • Is money stress turning love into conflict?
  • Has parenting pressure left your relationship on edge?
  • Can trust be rebuilt after infidelity, or has intimacy been replaced by routine and silence?
