It's a big step to reach out to a therapist/coach. Trust me, I know. Maybe you are contemplating a big change in your life; a loss or a question about ending or beginning a relationship? Or maybe you've been feeling like life has no meaning or just feels "blah?" Are you in the midst of an existential crisis or maybe it's more of a chronic problem like compulsive behaviors you can't seem to quit? Life is short, much too short to suffer through days feeling as though you are in a dark, lonely and unsatisfying existence. Working with me, I'd like you to know it's possible to THRIVE and to live the life you really believe you can live.
My clients tell me I'm an extremely compassionate listener and astute and insightful at honing in on a question for you to contemplate. That question may be the key that unlocks your inner wisdom and says to you: "go for it." I also offer LCSW supervision, it's a passion of mine I immensely enjoy. Try me out for a free 30m consult and see for yourself.
So take a deep breath, ask yourself "what do I have to lose?" Let go of your fears and make contact with me. What's the worst that can happen. I live in Hawaii, so minimally you may feel the Aloha spirit:).
