About My Clients
People avoid their inner pain in many ways: Addiction: to numb the feelings (gambling, shopping, substances, relationships, sex – most anything can become an addiction). Overworking: staying busy, so you don’t have time to think or feel. Perfectionism: to feel some sort of control in your life because your insides feel so chaotic. Denial: when someone asks how you are, you say you’re “fine” even though you aren’t. Together we tackle these challenges and more, and help you get your life back.!
My Background and Approach
It’s never too late for you to grow from the obstacles that have gotten in the way of you living your best life. But maybe you’re not sure how to get different results… or perhaps you doubt whether you’re even capable of changing. Professional experience has taught me that people are wise and capable. They have come to a point where previous ways are not working for their current challenges. I will ask you what challenges you are facing and your goals for our time together. We will develop an action plan so that our work is focused. I believe in the effectiveness of therapy when it’s practiced with goals in mind. When the work is focused, I’ve seen faster results. You will learn skills and gain insights in session, but at times, I give homework so you can maximize your efforts in between sessions. We will discuss serious topics happening in your life, but it can also be more light-hearted at times; we might laugh, and we will celebrate your wins. Call today for a free consultation.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I help people who have intense insecurity despite their accomplishments, low self-esteem, perfectionism, anxiety to the point of panic, depression to the point of not wanting to wake up, fear, guilt, shame, grief, and past traumas that are debilitating. I have been that person at points in my life, so I get it. I remember trying to find a therapist and the chore it was when I had so little energy left to care. I remember what it was like to have such intense fear among other horrible states and finally move past them. I am a believer that you can grow and thrive despite what you may have been through in the past-I am living proof, and I have seen clients heal, grow, and thrive too many times to believe anything else. Your challenges are unique, so we will find what works for you. I have many tools, skills, and techniques to help you get your life back. When I am not working, I play with my dogs, do yoga, and enjoy living. Let's see if we are a good fit for working together!
