Life is a journey that comes at us in waves or phases. These waves can knock us off our feet and, as a result, often feel insurmountable. I admire the bravery you show by coming to treatment and am honored to be part of your journey. By doing this, we will alleviate current symptoms and make connections between past and present. This will leave you with your eyes wide open to impending waves; thus, lessening their impact.
We will use every tool at our disposal, but most change will come as a direct result of the strength of our therapeutic alliance. The reason for this is that our relationship is a microcosm for patterns, behaviors and ways of being. My empathic, non-judgmental style will allow me to help you build awareness of self-identified unproductive behaviors.
I promise to never make you feel judged. We will build insight and courage so that you are able to live your best life. I am very interactive and do not sit idly by. Rather, I roll up my sleeves and help with the heavy lifting. I will become your biggest fan, always in your corner, and your biggest cheerleader during this transformational journey.
