About
First off, I’m glad you’re here. The process of healing, gaining insight, and addressing challenges (including finding a therapist), can be daunting. While life may be challenging at times, together we can work to ease that suffering and find new ways of existing in the world. I work from a client-centered, strengths-based perspective to collaborate on treatment, believing that you are the expert of your experience. With my knowledge of therapy skills/tools/modalities, your knowledge of your life, and our mutual collaborative efforts; let's work to make a change today! In our sessions, we will create an empathetic environment to identify your desired goals, deconstruct obstacles to success, identify strengths, and learn effective coping mechanisms. I also emphasize the importance of self-compassion and embracing positive, reality-based cognitions to improve self-confidence and encourage adaptive change. The processes of healing, self-discovery, addressing challenges, and/or easing suffering is a difficult path to tread. However, your reading this is evidence of your efforts and desire to make a change. Together, let’s work on making lasting growth and change in your life. I look forward to working with you!
"I use a Person-Centered approach primarily, leading with radical empathy, and an understanding that no one knows you better than YOU. Together, we will work towards processing hardships, generating solutions, and healing collaboratively. I also emphasize the importance of self-compassion and embracing positive, reality-based cognitions to improve self-confidence and encourage adaptive change."
