About My Clients
Do you feel like life is coming at you from all directions? Are you tired of hearing "just get yourself together"? Are you wanting to find your passion for life again? I understand this: the frustration, the weight of the world keeping you down, the sadness and confusion, even embarrassment and judgement. You don't need to suffer any longer. Therapeutic practices can alleviate much of this and I look forward to helping you find your way back.
My Background and Approach
The tools I'll provide you with are those that I have been improving on over my career helping people like you. My goal for you is to learn and implement several tools you can utilize any time anywhere. I am direct and solution-focused, yet gentle, empathetic, and non-judgmental. We'll work together to address the underlying issues that have you hooked. We'll begin with where you are now, discuss what it was like before, and discover where you want to be, so that you feel empowered to make it happen. For the past several years, I've focused on helping people with trauma and addiction issues. I've learned techniques that can greatly help. We'll discuss what you want to get out this time and how we can navigate it together in a safe space. You will find your way again.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that every person can grow, and change at any point in their lives. I believe in people's potential in doing so. I have witnessed, and experienced this in my own life. I went back to school when I was 46 and began helping others like me, and you. Being a therapist is deeply gratifying and a gift to offer compassionate support to others. I have struggled with addiction and through this type of support was I able to see clearly again. It's been years since my journey began, and changed for the better, and through the hard work, I was able move forward. I'm old school and used to follow the Grateful Dead across the country before Jerry died. And if you're a Phish fan, I won't judge you but we might need to work through that. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is healing in itself, as is what we discuss. I believe in providing a safe and confidential space for you to unload life's burdens to find your way back to the light. Give me a call to see what we can do together.
