I believe wholeheartedly that if a person is able to develop an ability to access their own courage, vulnerability, and grace for themselves and others, beautiful therapeutic change can occur. As your therapist, I see my relationship with you as someone who will stand steadfastly beside you in a bond of trust, unconditional positive regard, and empathy as you face the full catastrophe we call “being alive”. Together, we can build a creative and functional toolbox to help you approach life. The goal is for you to thrive through the moments of joy, the in-between, and yes… even in moments of sadness.
Together, we can uncover patterns and messages absorbed from the past that are contributing to your pain. I believe in working with you holistically, helping you to understand that your brain, emotions, and your body are all interconnected. By attending to all three in session, the intention is that you begin to feel aligned and anchored inside and out.
I provide evening sessions as well as daytime! Ultimately, I believe you can do this, and I hope to be a fellow traveler with you on your path towards mental health recovery, shame repair, and a rediscovery of your zest. Whether in-person or through a confidential and HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, I can’t wait to meet you.
