I believe you are the expert in your own life; my role is to support you in exploring and discovering insights and solutions. I grew up in a family of teachers, nurses, and clergy so supporting people is in my lineage. I value the opportunity to work with people at crucial life points where decisions can have a big impact. Being human is a complex and lifelong journey; it is honor to work with individuals at various parts in their work towards wholeness and a life well lived.
My communication style is warm and friendly using a story-telling approach. All of us hold stories which can provide insights and solutions to our understanding of who we are in the world. Working with me feels safe, comfortable, and supportive.
I provide support and feedback so clients can identify goals and areas to work on in therapy - I trust the client is the expert on their life and know where they want to focus on.
