My greatest passion is helping clients who are dealing with relationship problems, codependency issues, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, and having a pattern of staying in unhealthy relationships. I have helped many clients (men and women) who struggle in these areas, learn how they got to this place. I can help you realize how you arrived at this place. We can then work together to help you create and maintain healthy boundaries while increasing self-esteem, self-confidence, and enjoying healthier relationships. This work is very near and dear to my heart.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During our first session, I will do my best to make you feel comfortable and at ease and let you set the pace. I understand it can be very hard to share such personal issues with someone new. If you are not ready to share something in the beginning that is completely ok. You are in charge. The first session is mostly learning about the issues that bring you to therapy, what you would like to see change and background information about your life and relationships.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Perhaps my greatest strength as a therapist is my past life experiences, having dealt with the challenges of anxiety and relationship issues, overcoming codependency, and learning to create and maintain healthy boundaries. I have reached a place in my life where I am more at peace, and am grateful I can draw on these experiences to help my clients. Many clients have found themselves more comfortable working with me because I can relate to their struggles. I look forward to meeting with you, and being a support to help you grow and produce lasting change in your life!
