Self-discovery is a process fundamental to personal growth, and one that takes courage. My role as a therapist is to guide you in your process of developing self-awareness, which is the catalyst for change. Through self-awareness, we develop our understanding of the way we think, feel, and behave. We gain clarity on our triggers, the influence of our past, and our traumas. Ultimately, through self-awareness, we can curiously - and without judgment - determine our strengths, what we accept about ourselves, and what we desire to change.

Beginning therapy can no doubt feel a bit daunting. The therapy process can be frustrating, painful, and sometimes frightening if we’ve never had the opportunity to be listened to in a way where we can truly express ourselves. But it can also be rewarding and transformative, offering growth as well as a new sense of awareness about ourselves. Free of judgement, we can examine these things together in an effort to both alleviate distress and identify more constructive ways of being and coping.

It's important that you acknowledge yourself for taking the step to find a therapist who can provide guidance. In my forty years of experience I've learned that a big part of the healing occurs as a result of the relationship between client and psychotherapist. When this relationship is grounded in safety and compassion, the relationship healing occurs. My working style is client centered and collaborative. It invites self-inquiry and body awareness leading to a deeper understanding of issues and their root causes.
