Establishing the life you want can be overwhelming and stressful. No matter what area it is in, getting to a place where you can balance and embrace the highs and lows of every day takes work and consistency. We all have challenges that can make things difficult. I know that sometimes life can put you through storm after storm, or sometimes it is just a challenge to get through changes and adjust. Working together will get you through and prepare you for the future so you are not just surviving but genuinely thriving and at peace.
I am committed to meeting clients where they are. Multiple therapy approaches may be used to meet individual needs yet, I am passionate about using Existential Therapy. This focuses on clients' ability to make reasonable choices, their experiences, their search for meaning and purpose, free will, self-determination, and developing their full potential.
During our appointments, you can expect a welcoming, safe, and confident environment where you feel and know that your story matters and you are being heard. The space created provides comfort in expressing your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment. I am in partnership with Mindful Therapy Group, give me a call today.
