Things my clients often say: "I didn't think my problems were big enough for therapy ...I thought I just needed to try harder ...I had no idea talking to someone would help this much!" Therapy is not just for those with severe mental illness. Therapy is for the overwhelmed mom, still trying to recover from her own wounds. Therapy is for the person who "has it all", but is secretly sad most days. Therapy is for the high-achiever who battles anxiety and fears failure from the moment he opens his eyes. Therapy is for the couple who love each other but don't love their marriage.
You can expect me to listen without judgment and create a safe place to process your concerns. I will help you identify the underlying issues fueling the self-sabotage, outbursts, anxiety, and other things that are causing problems for you. Together we will work through what's bothering you and create a plan for better on the other side.
Things can be better, and therapy can help. In addition to a MA in counseling from UAB, I also hold a post-master's certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy, a certificate in religious trauma, and I am an EMDR therapist, trained to treat trauma and PTSD through bilateral stimulation/eye movement for desensitization and reprocessing.
