Humans are social animals; our brains are built for connection. We crave safe relationships to support us to feel, heal, deal, and grow. We all want to be the best version of ourselves, we just may not know what our best self looks like, or, may lack the support and experience required to discover such. When we are supported to identify and address the unmet needs that may block us from feeling like 'our best', we gain a greater sense of self. By understanding the impact of our relationships, attachments, and environments, we are able to truly make sense of the choices we make, and actions we may - or may not - take.
I focus on developing a safe therapeutic relationship, which includes healthy authentic communication, and makes use of humor, information sharing, and evidence based approaches such as emotion-focused therapy and ACT. I encourage active participation and offer opportunities to practice strategies and skills to enhance your ability to navigate challenges.
If we are not taught or shown better, we can not do better. Think of me like a safety guide who will guide the intentional exploration of the intertwining nature of your learnt coping skills, relationships, past experiences/ events, thoughts, feelings, and actions to ultimately help shift you from a state of 'surviving' to a place where you are 'thriving'.
