About My Clients
Many of my clients come to therapy when they are feeling overwhelmed and unfulfilled in life. Perhaps you're feeling pressure to constantly achieve, or maybe the needs of those around you are leaving you feeling drained. Maybe you aren't even sure what YOU want anymore. Life can be hard and while there are no quick-fixes it can help to talk through what you are facing. Together we can figure out how to create the life you want.
My Background and Approach
After climbing the achievement ladder for many years, I too experienced burnout from the stress of work, the expectations of always taking on more, and being on top of my game. Relaxation was for suckers and balance seemed like a foreign concept. I pushed myself until I realized that the common approach of "work harder" wasn't going to cut it anymore. In doing my own inner work I was able to figure out what I really wanted out of life and quiet the thoughts and feelings that no longer served me. I now have hobbies and relationships that I value in equal measure to my work. I want to help you do the same. I primarily utilize acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which is an evidence based approach that involves identifying what you want in life and engaging differently with thoughts and feelings to make these important things happen. Sessions may involve clarifying your values and goals, and giving you strategies to get to to the version of yourself you want to be.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Therapy can be intimidating and trying to find the right therapist can often feel like speed dating! I try to keep my approach warm with a balance of space to process and concrete strategies. If you're unsure if therapy is right for you, that's perfectly okay! I encourage you to reach out with any questions you may have.
