Whoever you are, whether it be struggling with relationship issues, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, all the way to trying to come to terms with a more persistent diagnosis, I cannot wait to meet you exactly where you are at. I invite you to reach out to me in this time, as hard as that may be. Because this truly is the hardest part. And know that if we are not a good fit, I can direct you to other therapists that can hopefully be exactly what you need.
Let's be real, choosing a therapist is pretty hard. I am someone that will work to find the right therapeutic focus for your sessions. I will collaborate with you to work on goals that you set for yourself. Short term goals are my favorite, long term goals are important too though. I really love emotion-focused and solution-focused work!
My goal from our first interaction to our last is to give you a safe space to feel heard and validated. A space to laugh, cry, and feel all the feels in between. I promise to work myself out of a job, giving you all the tools to empower you to fire me when you do not need therapy anymore. But until that day, I promise to be on your team.
