We all have ideals-- how we think we should feel, how we feel we should think, how we want others to behave towards us, how we want our life to unfold. When reality doesn’t match our ideals, it can bring confusion, frustration, even despair. We may feel trapped between our ideals and reality, leading us to believe we are spinning in circles. I see the therapeutic process as one that allows for an exploration of these ideals and an opportunity to understand how they play a role in one’s relationship with self and with others. My hope is that, through this process, you will find a deeper clarity of your values, wants, and needs.
I have experience with people from their late teens into their 80's and appreciate the unique challenges experienced at each stage of life. I work with depression and anxiety, both specific and existential. I believe that once a person accepts responsibility for being the agent of change in their life, shifts can occur.
I aspire to help you cultivate personal strength, attune to your inner compass, and gain traction in reality, ultimately allowing you to walk in the direction of your values. I deeply respect the person who chooses to take these steps and would honor the chance to walk with you in this process.
