Sometimes life feels unmanageable or even unfamiliar; the heaviness is more than you can bear. Do you feel overwhelmed or overlooked? My goal is to ensure that my client's feel seen and validated while working to empower them with tools to navigate their current challenges. Therapy is a collaborative effort that allows you to use your voice in identifying solutions for your life.
During the first session, I will ask quite a few questions so that I can best understand who you are and what you are looking for. I know that it can be uncomfortable and feel like a bit of an inquisition, but we're laying the groundwork to build a strong foundation.
Coming from a Social Work background gives me a broad scope, examining individual, community, and societal issues. I understand that each client is a mosaic of their experiences and environments and I create a space where we explore how all of those things impact the person.
My clients are transparent about where they are so that I can meet them there. They come willing to explore different possibilities and feel confident to tell me no or correct me when I misunderstand. They know that I can only work as hard as they will.
My goal for my clients is to reclaim autonomy over their lives. I specialize in working with client's who are dealing with interpersonal relationship issues, anxiety, depression, trauma and everyday life stressors. This isn't a space for you to have it all together or have all the words, but rather for you to just be - authentically. Letting your guard down, taking your cape off, being vulnerable and open is all you need to start doing the work for you.
