LCSW, 30 years of experience
Hello and welcome to my practice. I work exclusively with people in their 20s and 30s; however, the platform is programmed for Age Groups 18 - 64. This journey is all about how you experience yourself in the many situations of your life. What challenges are you experiencing? How do you want to show up in the world? Are you feeling stuck? What's getting in the way of your life unfolding in the way you'd like it to? Let's embark upon this journey and unpack all this together.
The first session is somewhat structured; otherwise, we'll engage in meandering conversations, as we listen to and pay attention to your relationship with your thoughts, your feelings, your body, the people in your life and the natural environment.
My ability to listen closely to you will help you to hear yourself towards developing internal freedom of choice. Perhaps your habitual patterns were once useful but now they're like continuing to wear a raincoat when the sun is shining - I'll help you to shed them slowly and surely. Perhaps you feel a lack of meaning and purpose in your life - this is definitely something we can attend to. Let’s lean in; the way out is through.
My ideal client is reflective and interested in listening to how their speech discloses their mind to uncover conflicts, meaning, patterns and themes in their thoughts and behavior towards change.
I use this method to listen to your speech that is less then explicit in order to bring the your attention to themes so that you learn to listen to your mind. This approach works with non-goal directed, meandering conversations. I regard sessions as conversations between you, a person who has courageously turned to a stranger and me, a person who is a skilled listener. We engage in this collaborative partnership to serve your capacity to flourish.
I use Psychological Education to explain how the mind works and how you can become familiar with how your mind works.
