About My Clients
I enjoy working with clients who are up for a little work. I have a strong belief in the idea that therapy isn't something that is done to us, rather something we must take an active role in to see any true progress. I view therapy as another way to add more tools to our toolbox in an effort to better ourselves. My goal isn't to have a client for life; it is to teach the skills needed for my client to be their best selves, even after we have finished working together.
My Background and Approach
I specialize in providing a warm, compassionate, and calm environment. I am a great therapist for someone who is looking for warmth, and honesty, in all areas. I am the type of therapist who will be able to congratulate you on all your successes. While also crafting a space for you to be able to express all your thoughts, and feelings, however intense.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that anyone can change and grow at any time in their lives. I think each of us have the ability to rise out of our circumstances and overcome the obstacles placed before us. I think the vast majority of behaviors that are called mentally unhealthy are actually behaviors that once helped us. We developed these behaviors to survive circumstances out of our control or traumatic things that were being done to us. Unfortunately, now those same behaviors are causing problems for us. I had to overcome behaviors and responses that I learned from my own traumatic childhood. While it was hard work, I had a therapist to guide me through the change. Now, my responses are minimal and manageable. I want to do the same thing for you that was done for me. Relief really is possible and together we can achieve it for you.
