Hello there! Life sure is filled with beauty and it has its' dark and challenging times. If you are finding it harder to find the joy in life, please know that you are not alone and that there is always hope. We all feel sad, anxious, and stuck at times. Finding someone we feel comfortable talking to and learning new tools from can help us better manage our emotions. I am passionate about helping bring to light the strengths and values already inside a person. It is these strengths and values that guide our work together.
I know that the therapeutic relationship between you and your therapist is important in the effectiveness of the therapy. Because of this, I ask you for regular feedback on not only my therapeutic approach but if you are feeling heard and understood.
I know how difficult making that first call to a therapist or sending that first email can be. Please know that I respect this and I will return your call or email you. I am continuing to panel with additional insurance companies so if you think we may be a good fit and you don't see yours listed, please inquire.
