Telehealth only currently. Are you worried your problems are too big or too small? You have nothing to fear. Some of my clients have experienced the worst life has to offer, and need help to heal deep trauma wounds, others simply desire to rebuild relationships, parent better, or reduce anxiety, depression, or substance use. My clients come to therapy to address issues in their past that impact their relationships, their work, self image, or have led to unhealthy habits. I enjoy helping people to better understand themselves, set boundaries, realize goals, and improve their health and wellness through integrative approaches.
I am an experienced therapist. My approach is influenced by my training in Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Holistic Health, Motivational Interviewing, Ego-State “parts” work and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I appreciate being a partner in, and witness to, your change. Visit purposepsychotherapy dot com for details.
All are welcome here. I enjoy working working with all identities and relationship types, and helping clients to explore their unique cultural and spiritual strengths for personal growth. Asking for help isn't easy and I'm impressed you've made it this far. Message me to schedule a (free) consultation to meet where we can discuss how I might support you.
