| Practice Description: |
Are you feeling stuck, empty, alone? Are you struggling during a difficult time? Maybe you are searching for meaning and purpose in your life. Life presents us with challenges, at times you might feel frustrated, stuck, in pain, or overwhelmed. Difficulties in life provide us with tremendous opportunities for growth and healing. Life's painful and difficult periods are opportunities to make changes towards a better, happier, more meaningful existence. The discomfort you feel is a wake-up call that something is no longer working, something needs to change, and it's time to learn a better way. It is my belief that healing and growth are always possible. Sometimes we may need a little help and support through this process. Working together with the right therapist can be key to changing your life and helping you live a happier more meaningful life.
I see therapy as a process, a journey of discovery and learning. As your therapist I will be part of your journey by providing a caring, supportive, and nonjudgmental atmosphere. I aim to create a safe space where you feel free to express your deepest thoughts, emotions and concerns. In order to move forward in our lives it is important to deal with emotional pain, stress and anxiety we may be carrying. Therapy can help address and deal with unresolved conflict and pain which may be impacting you in a negative way both mentally and physically. I believe the therapist client relationship is the most important piece when it comes to making lasting and meaningful changes. Through our relationship my goal is for you to gain a better understanding of yourself, achieve balance in your life, and be the best version of yourself. I can help you discover the answers that lie within you. You are the expert on you, I am not here to give you answers, I am here to help you understand and navigate your world better
My approach supports the integration of the mind, body and spirit. I believe it is important to look at all parts of an individual when trying to create a picture of optimum health and not just one piece of the puzzle. I have experience working with a wide range of issues and challenges including relationship issues, depression, anxiety, life transitions, family changes, and emotional concerns. My experience includes working with clients in many different stages of life from adolescence to late adulthood. I have experience working with individuals and couples. I have completed Level 1 training in Gottman Method Couples therapy and utilize The Gottman Method when working with couples.
