Whether you are facing relationship issues (e.g., with yourself and/or with others), exploring your identity, seeking understanding, in need of some new coping strategies, or experiencing something else altogether that leads you to consider if therapy may be right for you at this time: I believe that examining your life, exploring the meaning that you make of your experiences, and gaining new insights can allow you to create new paths that lead to a greater sense of wellness.
I tend to take a tailored approach to my work with groups and professionals in order to focus on what is important to, and to meet the needs of, everyone I work with. Though the work of therapy and of consulting can be challenging and at times uncomfortable, these experiences are highly rewarding.
The therapy and consulting experiences are co-created. While I have extensive training, you are the expert on your life and lived experiences. I would appreciate the opportunity to be a part of (read: a passenger on) your journey to overall personal and/or professional well-being.
