Emotions are what make us human. We as human beings desire a sense of belonging. Understanding how we connect with others through our emotions and our environment can give us a deep sense of who we are. In therapy, we can learn to radically accept where we are emotionally and where we can grow. Therapy is a commitment to self-love. My goal is to create a safe and trusting space where effective communication can flourish. By openly exploring where barriers to growth might be and developing ways to mindfully process possible outcomes, we can together develop new ways to become whole.
