Hello and WELCOME all! Life can be rough at times...throwing you all types of curveballs which can cause increased symptoms of anxiety, depression and anger while adding score to your tally of traumatic experiences. As horrible as those curveballs are at zapping away your joy they do not deserve a space long enough in your life to pilot it. YOU have the power to take control of your life and I will be there with you every step of the way. I am committed to supporting growth in clients. My ultimate goal is to assist you with attaining and maintaining stability in your life so you can learn to live an authentic, peaceful and productive life. I am empathetic and assertive in my communication style which has helped me develop strong therapeutic alliances with the clients I serve. I feel I create a relaxed space for clients to safely process their thoughts and express their feelings. Clients feel understood in each session as I show compassion without judgment. I am humorous too!
In our first session together, we'll review confidentiality and discuss ongoing measures. We'll have brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
