I believe that our core identity finds expression in our choices Self-defeating, self- sabotaging thoughts and behavior patterns are learned. They can be unlearned. Our childhood blueprint is not a prison cell. Doors can be un-locked and new paths discovered. Early trauma or even just growing up in a "normal", well-meaning family can create patterns that keep us from actualizing who we are truly meant to be. Seeking therapy takes courage. You didn't get "broken" alone.

Often people seek support when it feels like "something" isn't working - perhaps in a relationship, your career, or within yourself. That feeling may be connected to a specific event, relationship, or personal trait, or it might be hard to identify that "something." As we get to know each other, we'll work to identify what's not working and determine how to bring change and relief. We'll likely notice patterns in your relationships, ways of approaching problems, or in how you see the world. Then we'll explore how these patterns impact your life, so you have the power to choose whether to continue them or develop new patterns.
