My ideal client may present with a variety of issues, but ultimately they are motivated to seek change and implement strategies discussed in therapy while in-between sessions. They strive to be open and vulnerable in sessions and are looking to be an active and collaborative part of their therapeutic journey. I believe that we are all experts on our own experience, and a client who is willing to provide feedback on what is working and what isn't can assist in helping them tailor the therapy experience to their individual needs.

People truthfully want to be heard. Clients want to know you're listening, validating and joining in their story. Each time a new client comes into my office, I am fully aware they are nervous and do not trust me. It is my job to share enough of myself with you, giving you the necessary comfortable space to feel free to begin to heal. I listen, I listen but when you are anxious or nervous, I ask easy but directive questions. You CAN do this, whatever is stopping you from living the life you want. Together, listening, talking, laughing, crying, sometimes having a bit of chocolate along the way! Come on in....you got this!
