Feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns from a past trauma, depression, anxiety, or a life change can feel impossible to break. The point at which you recognize the path you're on isn't one you wish to continue down anymore is an optimal time to take action, but the idea of taking this step can be very overwhelming. There are dozens of therapists out there, all with similar credentials, years of experience, etc. So how can I specifically help you? Using distinct therapeutic tools and techniques, we will establish a safe and supportive process so that together we can create and maintain the changes you would like for yourself.
The purpose of our sessions is to help you uncover the core of what's keeping you stuck. In our sessions, I can help you detour from the current path you're on and find one that leads to you feeling "lighter" and more confident dealing with life's challenges. Together, we will break unhealthy patterns and unpack underlying issues that are keeping you from living a fulfilling life.
I approach therapy from a solution-focused perspective in order to help resolve issues quickly. While tailoring treatment to fit individual client needs, I utilize different therapeutic techniques to guide and help build resilience, empowerment, and insight. I believe everyone has the ability to write the way their story is going to continue. Let's work together to write your story with the change you'd like to see.
