Hey there! Whatever you're feeling right now.. is VALID and NORMAL. You're not alone and when you first come to my office, I hope you feel that i'm treading the waves with you. As a counselor, I believe my role is to meet you wherever you are in your healing journey - we can just stay in our comfort zone or we can open up the door to challenges. Either way, I hope to provide a warm and open space for you to take our next steps. As I hope you always leave my office with a new message.. today, i'll leave you with this message.. "Only in Calmer waters can you see your reflection" - Calmer Waters Counseling
My approach to therapy is allowing my client the space to explore wherever is most pressing at the moment. In our sessions, we will explore unhealthy thought patterns that contribute to mood changes while also finding change centered talk that helps motivate us towards goals! I'm happy to be both your support while also giving you the challenges you need!
Beginning counseling can be an overwhelming and intimidating experience. It's ok to feel unsure about talking with a stranger about your mental health! I hope to create a place that feels welcoming and supportive for you. I’m happy to sit with you and listen without any judgment. I'd love to join you in this new journey!
