When we avoid dealing with painful emotions and experiences, we allow emotional wounds to develop. Emotional wounds are just as serious as physical wounds, and need just as much attention and care. When we neglect emotional injuries, we allow the wounds to fester and infect other areas of our life. Our therapeutic style focuses on confronting painful emotions and understanding their role in interpersonal emotional reactivity. For this reason, therapy is intense and emotionally heightened. It brings out individuals' most vulnerable emotions and promotes the expression of the true self.

Have you experienced the heaviness of a chronic illness or the weight of being a caregiver? Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, isolated, or even depressed at times? Living with a chronic illness is an invisible battle that goes beyond physical symptoms. The emotional toll it takes on you, your partner, or caregiver is often overlooked but just as significant. Whether it's your relationship, career, or household responsibilities, chronic illness or being a caregiver can make it difficult to be the best version of yourself. It takes a lot of courage to take that first step, and I want to commend you for seeking support.

Starting therapy can be one of the most intimidating and vulnerable experiences a person can go through. It also takes courage and strength to begin a journey of healing and self-discovery. Therapy can be a space to let our walls down and begin understanding our emotions, behaviors, and views of ourselves. I believe you can grow and begin to see the strengths you already possess, make the necessary changes to live the life you wish for, and see that you are stronger than you realize and are capable of achieving your goals and living a healthy and happy life.
