The ideal client is transparent, communicative, self-motivated for therapy, can identify their own goals and reasons for change, and willing to do the work inside and outside of sessions consistently. Life is hard. Making changes is hard. Feeling stuck in longstanding patterns is hard too. I think it's not about avoiding "the hard", but rather about "picking your hard." When we focus on what we can control, we have more opportunities to set realistic expectations, and when we set realistic expectations, we are more likely to execute and feel successful. I think we can do some great work together! If you're ready, I'm ready!
While completing my undergraduate in psychology, I found myself wanting to learn more as I felt a "pull" towards this discipline. The more I learned, the more I loved. As a result, I ended up with two masters, a doctorate, and a breadth of professional experience later. Here I am. I'm passionate about this work and recognize the privilege it is to do it.
If you have already found yourself feeling like you could benefit from some changes, and you have found yourself on this site looking for ways to make that happen-then you have already taken great steps and created momentum. You are brave. So, keep going. I look forward to hearing from you. We can make this move together.

Many come in to therapy and tell me that there is something "wrong with them." However, even if there are things you want to change in your life-there is a lot RIGHT with you too. Let's make changes and do the work from a strengths-based perspective. Life is hard enough. Turns out that you do not have to be so hard on yourself in order to make desired changes. Actually, it works better that way.
