As an open-minded and relationship-based therapist, the most important relationship we create is with our inner self. It is the foundation for our everyday life, and it enables us to heal and grow. Often, we need someone on a journey alongside us to understand our inner self, how the environment we live in influences how we see ourselves, and what we might need to heal and grow. I have been fortunate to work with a diverse population of clients who have experienced various challenges and roadblocks that impact not only how they see themselves in the world, but also how they can accomplish their life goals.

I've spent my entire professional life working with people who have trauma, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, or a psychotic disorder. My clients are fighting a hard fight, and I value being in it with them. I called my web site "Audeo", which is Latin for "I dare", because my typical client needs some courage just to look up a therapist (or *another* therapist) and I respect it. When it was hard for you to show up for therapy, or use your coping skills, or get up today, you have my respect. You might be doing everything right when you don't feel right at all.

As therapists, we work to build a genuine relationship with each client, create a safe space for discovery, and aim to understand that individual. This allows clients to safely explore alongside the therapist, and begin to see themselves with greater clarity, depth, and honesty. Good, effective therapy will likely not happen overnight (though exciting and wonderful eureka moments certainly occur along the way), and trust, honesty, and humor are invaluable to a beneficial therapeutic relationship. We believe that laughter and tears are equally powerful but that therapeutic change is measured in neither.
