“Sensitivity isn't being wimpy. It's about being so painfully aware that a flea landing on a dog is like a sonic boom.” This is a quote from a favorite musician of mine, Jeff Buckley. I see sensitivity as a strength, not a deficit. As a therapist, I work hard to help my clients understand that oftentimes the parts of themselves that they view as weak are really their greatest strengths. The stories we tell ourselves about ourselves are very important. They are the lens through which we view everything- they color our world. The problem is that a lot of the time the narratives we have about ourselves are simply not true.

Every client has unique circumstances and issues that can be addressed during counseling through individualized treatment.

Mi enfoque es satisfacer las necesidades específicas de mis clientes, a través de enfoques holísticos y cognitivos durante la consejería).
