You're someone who is looking to find just the right fit in a counselor. Maybe you are experiencing grief, or having difficulty adjusting to life changes. Perhaps you have a general sense of dissatisfaction with life, or have specific things you want to work through. Or, maybe you're feeling trapped by anxiety, or past trauma, and you want to feel a sense of hope; to be seen, heard, and understood. There is no "one-size-fits-all" approach to therapy, and the things you may want to work on are important and unique.
Counseling is not just about symptom reduction, or "fixing" something that is broken. Rather, it's about finding healing through relationship. During your work with me, you'll learn to be more mindful and flexible as you navigate your own life with compassion and acceptance.
I look forward to hearing from you, and am happy to answer any questions you may have. This could be an important step in prioritizing your well-being, and I would be honored to walk with you on this journey. Feel free to contact me, and we can explore if I might be a good fit for you and your needs.
