My Approach to Therapy

My approach to helping is directly inspired by the challenges of modern life. To many of us, life feels increasingly boring, lonely and chaotic. Social media, technology addiction, and disconnection from meaningful relationships combined with increasingly fast-paced lives have left many of us feeling chronically overwhelmed and unfulfilled. We spend a lot of mental energy trying to convince ourselves and others that we are normal or special. We struggle to accept our limitations and to process in a healthy way the normal discomfort that comes from ordinary daily life. My passion is helping people discover how their life came to feel so small, stuck or empty and to help them create a new map, one that hopefully leads them back home, to a solid sense of self. I love when people realize they have choices where they thought they had none or discover that they get to choose to create a life that doesn't consume them. It is a joy to teach people how to hold the tension of both beauty and sorrow and that being present to your emotions is the hidden path forward.

Had a Negative Therapy Experience?

Maybe your past therapist talked too much, referred to her own problems excessively; your sessions devolved into chit chat, boundaries felt blurry, heshe just generally lost the plot about how to keep the focus on you, or you just had a nagging feeling that you weren?t moving forward in life as much as you had hoped. As an experienced therapist who has also been a therapy client in the past myself, I understand how important it is for the you the client to feel like you can actually trust your therapist to operate from a distinctly professional healing vantage point. This means therapy that is warm, skillful, grounded in reality, and always open to feedback and course correction, if needed. This isn?t to say that I won?t disappoint you from time to time; I am only human, but I will do my best to address these unmet expectations, find out what you need in order to feel safe and trusting again, and move forward together towards your goals. Your disappointments in me or any other clinician are welcome here! Let's see if we can use them as valuable information about what matters to you and see where it lead.
