A valuable lesson I received in therapy was that not listening to my intuition led to distress. Many of us disregard our inner voice in favor of external messages containing judgments about our size, race, gender, sexual orientation, and how we express our emotions. This attempt to cope with the world around us and to fit in leads us to devalue and move further from our true selves. I help my clients sift through these messages to find their voice again and move closer to their authentic selves. When we begin to know ourselves better, we can navigate through the world more confidently and build more genuine relationships.
I meet my clients where they are at, while gently encouraging them to step out of their comfort zones. I provide a grounded presence so my client’s feel safe to share their experiences. At my client’s discretion, I incorporate movement, humor, and creative methods including poetry, art, and music. I enjoy working with couples and individuals of all ages.
I would be honored to be a part of your journey. Please contact me with any questions about how I work or how therapy works in general. I am accepting clients for in-person or online counseling.
