My aim in psychotherapy is to be trustworthy, to pay deep attention to whatever you are bringing to talk about, and to have ideas and strategies to offer that can help. My goal is to work alongside of you to help you figure out the problems you are currently facing, and in the process help you to learn more about trusting yourself so that you can live out what you value, and find greater happiness.. Psychotherapy, for me, is a process where a person can take the time to talk through current problems, and in the process, explore your deep motivations, fears, and dreams, and your relationship with others and the world.
