“I find it difficult to find interest or purpose in my daily life or relationships.” "I am struggling with depression or sadness." “I am overwhelmed with anxious thoughts of worry or dread.” “I experienced trauma as a child that still bothers me." "I constantly overreact in anger." “I feel like I am walking on eggshells in my relationship or I am tired of having the same fight.” Do any of these thoughts sound familiar? Many of my clients have struggled with similar thoughts and with counseling developed the inner strength, resilience, and practical skills to make healthy changes in their lives. With empathy, I engage each therapeutic relationship by modeling authenticity to create safety and courage to disclose your story. Listening without judgment, I seek to understand the world through your perspective. My objective is help clients process struggles, explore causes, manage what can’t be changed, and inner strength to make desired changes. Through collaboration, I practice a holistic, experiential, and insight oriented therapeutic approach. As you commit to process your internal issues, I will guide you to healthy productive ways of thinking and acting. You will find I am respectful, culturally sensitive, and encouraging whereby facilitating brave space allowing you to be truly seen and heard.
