My ideal client ... is a mess. Someone who knows enough to know they need help, and whether or not they reached out for help in the past, never really found the help they needed. The client is ready to make change, to learn coping skills, and work on their relationships. The client is not dependent on me to solve their problems for them, but is willing to do whatever it takes to get their life on track.
I specialize in clients with a history of trauma, and all of the ways trauma can manifest; such as personality disorders, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, and psychosis. My passion is to help people achieve their full potential, and to overcome obstacles.
I bring a sense of acceptance for you in your situation, just as you are. Your circumstances are not your fault, but it is your responsibility to get your life where you want it to be. I'm here to help make that happen.
