Oftentimes, people come to therapy because they feel stuck in patterns that they can't shake, despite their best efforts--this may be creating symptoms of anxiety, depression, or relationship issues. I provide a safe, focused environment that allows my clients to explore themselves, their relationships, and their experiences in the world. I also offer special sensitivity to how cultural, racial, and societal issues affect an individual's life. The process is aimed at allowing people to clarify their own goals and move toward them, and to discover new ways of approaching life's challenges while becoming more aware of their personal values and needs.
Deep understanding leads to lasting change. Your lived experience is rich and deserves to be fully understood. We work as a team, where you are the expert on you and I bring my years of experience helping people create lasting change in their lives, shed symptoms, feel more effective and experience increased internal wholeness and a sense of being at peace.
If you are seeking a safe and supportive process where you feel heard and understood, please reach out. We can talk and see if it's a good fit for you.
