Are you feeling stressed, worried, sad, or depressed? Do you struggle with abandonment or rejection issues? Have you made choices that were not in your best interest? Whether you are feeling sad, overwhelmed, anxious, afraid, fearful or dealing with self-defeating behaviors, including self-sabotage, I will work with you to understand the origin of your issues. We will form an alliance to examine and change the patterns or obstacles preventing you from living the balanced, healthy, authentic life that you deserve. We will work with your strengths to form effective strategies to help you be the author of the life you desire.
Your natural capacity to heal, your uniqueness and personal strengths, will be the center of our work together, in a safe space that's free of judgement. I will support you in connecting the person you are now to the person you want to be, while helping you understand where you come from, what causes us to do what we do and how to get where you want to be.
The decision to seek therapy is a difficult decision to make and my goal is to assist you on this journey. Therapy is not about changing you; it's about you making the best choices for you. I will support, encourage, validate, listen to and respect you, while celebrating your uniqueness, strengths and individuality. I am awaiting your phone call.
