A therapist's main role is to earn your trust and develop a good rapport so that you will feel safe and comfortable to share about yourself. Receiving validation for your thoughts and feelings regarding your experience helps you to begin the healing process. You can begin to handle toxic situations/relationships and learn to set boundaries with others. Counseling encourages you to take care of "you" and teaches you how to improve your self-esteem. You learn to regulate and tolerate emotions causing anxiety & depression. You can begin to replace harmful habits with new healthier behaviors. I can see anyone in the state of CA online

In this process, my role is to listen, to support, to challenge, to guide, and to celebrate you as you are becoming more courageous to face the parts of yourself you were avoiding, more accepting of yourself and of others, and fully present in your life.
