Therapy is an amazing placebo. You do not NEED a therapist to learn, transform, and grow your awareness of yourself. I firmly believe whatever it is you are seeking to learn, change, or make peace with, you can do it. The benefit of working with a trained therapist who sees you, gives your sense of agency and innate wisdom the respect it deserves, and offers an outside perspective on your experience informed by evidenced-based theory and practice, is that the pace of growth is greatly accelerated.

"Relationships and how we communicate are the two most important things in our lives." -- I am totally committed to improving communication and relationships. -- I believe communication is often more at the core of quality relationships than digging into our deep, dark, past issues. -- Research and years of my own experience clearly show that effective therapy is not a set of skills or techniques, but a way of being. Our here & now experience is the fuel of therapy. One more tidbit: Therapists are like shoes. You have to try some on before you find one that fits.
