My Philosophy in Therapy

I view therapy as an important aspect of personal self-care and wellness. We all go through challenging experiences in our lifetime, and many of us have experienced hardship during our early years. These difficult experiences have given us unique perspectives on how we cope with challenges and form relationships. Seeking support through therapy does not mean you are flawed or broken. It means that you are compassionately taking care of yourself and setting up the necessary supports to experience success in many areas of your life. It's OK and important to ask for help. The most important part of finding a therapist is connecting with someone you can trust and someone with whom you can build a relationship. A good therapist will respect your boundaries, and will never push you to explore content that feels too overwhelming or unsafe. I work with my clients to develop communication skills, boost self-esteem and create reliable coping strategies to deal with life's stressors.
