About me
Change is scary. Change is difficult. In order for you to achieve your best self, change is necessary. I am here to help you navigate your journey with empathy, supportive reflection, compassion, and many laughs!
Let's keep it real. Self work is difficult. Yet, you realized that you want to do things differently in your life. Keep going!! You want to once again experience happiness, a sense of control, a sense of peace, but are unsure how to get those things back. At times the picture seems blurry. It is difficult to see hope or even positives in lieu of emotional distress. Let me help you to clearly define the change you want to make to live a life of fulfillment. Through self-exploration we create hope, define our preferred future, and lessen fear. Add in a strong therapeutic relationship, and together, we create real change!
We will begin where YOU are and will work towards achieving your greatest potential! I want to empower you to work towards becoming your best self. I would like to help you to focus on solutions in session mainly from the theoretical framework of solution-focused therapy.
Your strengths and previous successes to challenges are important to me. At several points in your life, you were able to successfully navigate through a difficult moment or space. Let's work together to uncover those solutions from within!
