Clients who come to therapy are often in the murk of their own perspectives and thoughts which can feel overwhelming and isolating when trying to solve their problems. I believe as humans we want to be heard, understood, and find a sense of belongingness, and the therapy process can offer those things to clients while they try to find their sense of balance in their lives. One doesn't have to know exactly what the problem is necessarily because often times the outer layer of an onion is what one comes in with, but through the process together we may discover a deeper core that will lead to a beautiful blooming new start.
I am very eclectic in my therapy approach and I involve my client in the process of determining what might work best for them. I have almost 30 years of mental health experience in working with people who have struggled with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, LGBTQIA+ community, and grief to name just a few.
It is hard to go through life unscathed, and I can relate and empathize to a lot of various issues, thoughts, and feelings that people experience. Many of my clients would say my strengths are my empathy, compassion, and that I just "get it." Even if I haven't been through your exact situation, I understand people, pain, and hope for a better life.
