I believe that each individual is a unique being and that throughout different times in our lives we may feel uncomfortable. This feeling is our mind and body’s way of telling us that growth is within our reach. There are some essential necessities that we all need to feel safe, but once those are met, we can all learn to grow in new ways. If you can trust me in the safe space that we will create together, I will do my best to provide you with the guidance you need. I am flexible in my approach, adjusting to meet you where you at so growth is obtainable and achievable.

Seeking therapy is often part of a painful journey. Things a person did on their own for their mental health & to connect with others have not worked. Sadness & fear interferes with their work & relationships. For some people seeking therapy, alcohol & drugs provide temporary relief from suffering; however, those behaviors sometimes cause further damage. It’s hard for them to accept compliments & they feel uncomfortable in their own skin, even after achieving things that are supposed to be fulfilling. They meet interesting, loving people, & they find it very hard to get close to them, leading to more isolation.

Feeling like you are not living a life that is authentic to your sense of Self can leave you feeling like you are not living a life of purpose. "Who am I, or I am more than this, or I don't know who I am suppose to be" are words that can leave you feeling lost, empty, and full of fear. That fear can manifest in anger, abuse, violence and self-loathing. Through working with me, I can help you learn to love yourself, surrender negative thoughts and teach you how to get to your best Self.

Humanistic Therapists
How does humanistic therapy work?
One tenet of humanistic therapy is that people are good. The humanistic approach is concerned with a person’s ability to accept oneself. It likewise encourages a person to overcome self-criticism and self-defeating tendencies, as well as disapproval from others. This approach also emphasizes self-actualization and treating an individual as a whole person. A foundation of this therapy type: The patient is the expert in their life, and treatment often takes the individual’s lead.
Is humanistic therapy evidence-based?
Humanistic therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has found that humanistic therapy can lead to significant improvement, and for some people it can be just as effective as other therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of humanistic therapy are enduring.
How long does humanistic therapy last?
The goal of humanistic therapy is to understand a person’s day-to-day experiences. While sessions can be short-term and last over a few months, therapy can sometimes continue beyond that and last up to a year or more. And because patients learn the theory behind humanistic therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.
Is humanistic therapy effective?
According to research, many patients find success with humanistic therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in addressing poor self-esteem and self-sabotage, as well as improving conditions including anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can be long standing, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve learned during treatment.
