You struggle with difficult thoughts, memories, feelings, sensations, and urges that affect your relationships, work, school, and other aspects of life. You want to work with a therapist who is down to earth, and makes you feel heard, understood, and respected. You want work on the topics and goals most important to you. Regardless of your situation or challenge, I believe in your potential to live well, and as a collaborative, trauma-informed, and strengths-oriented therapist, I can help you struggle less, so you can spend more time living well, being the person you want to be in relationships and other aspects of life.
We use your knowledge and experiences to design therapeutic processes that fit for you, your goals, and life circumstances. As you experience yourself struggling less with difficult thoughts, memories, feelings, sensations and urges, you are more able to act like the person you want to be in relationships, work, school, and other aspects of life.
We all struggle with difficult thoughts, memories, feelings, sensations and urges that can keep us from being the person we truly want to be at times. Together we can help you struggle less, so you can spend more time being the person you want to be. I am looking forward to working together. Email or call for a free consultation.
