You’re anxious. You’re afraid. And perhaps you’re addicted to whatever distracts you, even for a moment: pills or alcohol or electronic devices that promise human contact but never quite deliver. Sometimes you feel okay, for a day or two, but then the pain and the loneliness all come flooding back. You find yourself wondering if anyone really understands you, if anyone would really love you if they knew the real you. That’s because you secretly carry shame about the things you’ve done, who didn’t love you, who you are, or about what happened to you.
I get it. I have worked for years with genuinely good people just like you. I call it an honor to work with those whose real wounds are on the inside, appreciatively, compassionately, and professionally. I bring specialized training in CBT, DBT, ADHD, and addictions to meet a range of needs, but mostly I bring an openness to your experience.
We’ll get to know each other, including your personal history and personal beliefs. We’ll identify your inner strengths that helped you survive this far. And together we’ll craft a vision of who you want to become and start that journey. I can hardly wait to meet you.
