I’m amazed by human resiliency in all the forms that it takes. If you are reading this, you must have already demonstrated your own resilience in hundreds of ways. Some of these ways may not be serving you well, and some may actually be causing problems for you, particularly if they were developed in situations where your power was limited. There’s an indescribable beauty in helping people identify and adjust the way that they care for themselves to help maximize their potential for happiness and healthy relationships, and I would be honored to accompany you through such a process.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In first sessions, my focus is on goal setting. I want to talk about what needs to be different in my client’s life, and then make a plan to impart changes in behavior or thoughts that can help the client realize these goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest personal strengths are that I’m curious and a good listener. These qualities help me individualize interventions to my clients. Additionally, I have a long history in yoga, including training and research on how to use yoga and mind-body techniques in therapy, that informs my relaxation training efforts, and I have found these very effective in processing trauma, managing anxiety, and building motivation for behavioral change.
