While life events and transitions can be overwhelming and isolating, you never have to be alone. Through the therapeutic process, I will empathetically work with you to understand your goals and help guide you to wellness. I love working with ages spanning from late teens to older adults during life transitions. I feel as though we can all have a “harsh inner critic”; this critic is difficult to silence or challenge. Many times, we ask ourselves, “why did this happen” or “why do I feel this way”? When we ask ourselves “why”, we tend to reinforce shame. Think about it, “why” indicates there is just one answer.
Since life is impacted by so many factors, there never is just one. Through our work, I’ll assist you in replacing shame with curiosity. Shame can lead to undesirable behaviors/thoughts, while curiosity allows us to explore coping skills that work specifically for you. The ultimate goal is to create a deeper understanding self and improve self-acceptance.
I provide an interpersonal approach to therapy, where we work together to understand the roots of the presenting concern. I am certified in DBT and I also have experience implementing PCT, ACT, and emotion-focused therapy. If you feel we would be a good fit, feel free to call Healthy Minds Therapy.
