Why Therapy?
Asking for help is hard. Telling your story for the first time - or telling it all over again - can be scary. Making the decision to come to therapy is a powerful step in creating the life and connections that you want. I see therapy as a gentle journey of exploration, healing, and making lasting changes that ultimately help you feel better and more fulfilled. And it doesn't have to take long! Clients often feel some benefit as quickly as the first session.
Are you feeling unfulfilled, depressed, unable to enjoy things that were once meaningful to you?
Are you pregnant and feeling overwhelmed? Are you a partner in need of support about becoming a parent?
Is anxiety interfering with how you want to live your life?
Is a major life transition or lossmaking it hard to stay grounded & "catch your breath"?
Are painful past experiences coming up and getting in your way?
"Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen." (Brene Brown) I believe that there is true power in sharing your story with someone you trust in an accepting, supportive space. My therapy approach is relational, holistic, collaborative, gestalt and trauma-informed. In our work together I see you as the expert in your own life and experience. We will build on your strengths and inner resources to create a path toward healing, acceptance and growth. I use experiential techniques that move beyond traditional talk therapy, while also carefully attending to how best to address your own unique needs. Whether you are coming to therapy for the first time, or you are returning for support, I will help to create the therapeutic environment you need to nurture your whole self and allow for meaningful change. Let's work together on helping you to live your fullest, most rewarding life.
