Most of us are fortunate to have "enough" in our lives, but often feel that there should be "more". More joy, more connection, more purpose, more fulfillment, more peace. Therapy is a process that helps us find that "more" and transition from a life where we survive, to one where we thrive. Therapy provides an opportunity to explore and utilize various paths to personal growth and healing. As a result, clients often report positive outcomes including: better understanding of self, improved communication, healthier connections to others, improved emotional regulation, and stress/symptom reduction.
My individualized approach is focused on providing empathy and understanding, magnifying existing strengths, and assisting others to generate and implement their own unique solutions to life's struggles and challenges. Together, we explore hopes, desires, patterns and fears to tap into a new understanding that creates meaningful change.
Therapy can be a valuable investment in your personal growth and well being, but reaching out to get started can feel intimidating. It's completely normal to have questions, doubts, or fears. Please visit my website to learn more about me and my approach to therapy. If you feel a sense of connection or curiosity about working together, send me a message!
