I love working with individuals who are struggling to break free of old habits, patterns of behavior, or relationships that are no longer serving them. Often it takes getting to the "end of our rope" with things to find that we have the most motivation to change. Making changes can be really scary and anxiety provoking, even when we know what we've been doing up until this point isn't working. I like being that supportive partner that helps a client figure out what isn't working, what they might like to change, and how. I value moving at a client's pace, in their direction, and in pursuit of their own vision for their life.
I am great at sorting through a client's "junk drawer". Whether your junk drawer is filled with old relationships that don't work, core beliefs that bring you down, or behaviors that have gotten you into trouble, together we can decide what tools to keep, which ones need dusting off, and which ones need to be updated or replaced. I use a CBT-based approach
There is no one particular type of client that I like to work with and truly enjoy the differences between each and every person I encounter. If you feel that your approach to life hasn't been working that well for you and are overwhelmed at the thought of how to change things, or just want to have someone in your corner, please don't hesitate to reach out!
