Perhaps you're here because you're interested in beginning a new conversation with yourself. There may be questions, and you may not know what to ask. What do you need and value? What do you desire most? Are you making choices in line with the life you want to be living? Maybe you have a diagnosis you want to learn more about and learn how to live with? Participating in therapy is not about getting advice, rather, helping you find your own answers by connecting to yourself, exploring who you are, and tapping into your potential.
As an OT practicing psychotherapy, my approach is collaborative and grounded in evidence based care. I can support you in working through depression, PTSD, OCD, anxiety and BFRBs. As well we can work through stuckness in life, aging, grief, and life transitions. I bring compassion and mindfulness to my work to promote resilience.
We can get caught up in life, live in auto pilot mode, and perhaps feel like we're going through motions that mean very little to us. Feelings of despair, anxiety, and being stuck are common. If you're unsure what you need, that's okay, we can chat and explore possibilities together. You don't have to figure out what you need on your own.
