I am going to be direct with you because that's how I am. All these profiles have fabulous ways of describing what therapists do and it's a bit intimidating - for you looking and for me as I compete in this forum. It's difficult to start this process but please make sure you find the right fit. Therapists have training - and some of those fancy methods are very effective! But I have found that over the years, time and time again - it is the relationship that heals. First the interaction must be strong and then if it suits you we can get into resources, workbooks, science etc. No one approach suits all people.
I have over 30 years of experience, however I have yet to hear it all. I will not judge you.
We have stories to tell. I can help you identify the innate longing for peace and connectedness that is unique to your life experience. Together we can find strategies to make your best intentions become your reality.

I like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and not just for the clever acronym ACT. I find it empowers the person to set their own goals and gives tools that can be applied in moments of difficulty as well as an overarching sense of purpose in life.
