Client's who work best with me are often not the clients who know exactly what they want or need in therapy, though that can be very helpful. Often they are simply people who recognise a need for help and are willing to engage in the process. You can go to any competent clinician and they should be able to support you with basic skills. What I draw out of people is not only what you want and need, but tstrengths and unique qualities to assist in making healthy choices and live your "best life."
I have worked in settings from prison to inpatient to community work and more. I offer a wealth of experience from both life and education/work. What makes me different is I see myself as the "light holder" and "guide' not the answer book. You are an expert on you, but sometimes help is needed to make a plan or to work through a history of trauma.
If you are interested in resolving trauma, improving mood, recovering from loss/betrayal/ or just wanting to improve your mental health, I am willing to walk with your at a pace that makes sense to both of us. You don't have to know exactly what you want when you start, but by the end....you will have gained the necessary skills and reached goals we set.
