My "best" successes came from people who finally gave up on what wasn't working for them anymore and came in with an open mind. This worked with issues of anxiety and depression, habits that people didn't want to continue doing, relationships that felt broken, and coping mechanisms that used to work but then began to create more problems. I thoroughly enjoy working with people who are ready to get their lives back on track.
I have a personal and family history that have made me sensitive to traumas and the results of poor decision making. I really hate the expression, "If I can do it, anyone can!" And yet, it's so true. Fortunately, it's much easier to see things clearly when it's happening to others and not ourselves, so ... experience + objectivity = success
Over the years, I started to see how we "helpers" were creating victims out of people instead of allowing them to grow by learning new skills, gaining clarity, and understanding how amazing they actually are. I get thrilled when I watch people surpass their own expectations, and look forward to future experiences. Never doubt your own strength and abilities.
