My goal is to meet the client where they are at and work together towards identifying what their struggles are, what gets in the way of addressing them and building skills to grow from there. Using mindfulness to increase awareness and understanding of the connection between mind and body we learn to recognize how emotions and other factors impact mood, attitude, attention and relationships. I view people through a trauma informed lens to ensure that all aspects of their past and present are considered possible influencers and may need to be better understood. I like to say my hope as your therapist is "helping you help yourself".
I strive to see each individual as the expert of their life and their culture, and together we will sift through the weeds to find what makes them stumble and not reach their potential. Past trauma, childhood family dynamics and life experiences all impact our personalities and ability to handle emotions and need to be part of the path to the solutions.
It is an honor to be entrusted with someone's story, who wants to find ways to live a more fulfilling and healthy life. Let's chat and see if you feel encouraged to work together and go from there.
