Imagine knowing how to read your own body cues, how to trust yourself, how to move through your relationships with confidence and boundaries, compassion and wisdom. Feeling out of touch with your core self, not feeling grounded, or sure of your decisions is a hard way to go through the day. Earn your own trust again, come back to your core self. Interns and associates, this goes for you too. Your best therapist is in there, forming itself while you gain experience. You deserve guidance as you develop and learn. Allow me to support you in this exciting time.
Know how to listen to yourself, know how to act from a place of getting your own needs met in order to be available for your partner, your family, your work, your community. I am a certified DBT practitioner and bring in elements of this, along with Motivational Interviewing, CBT and IFS techniques.
Find new ways of relating to yourself, your people, your life's story. Experience greater levity, personal empowerment and increased joy. Please call me for a consultation or to make an appointment.
