About My Clients
I strongly believe in an individual’s ability to heal and change in positive ways when they are offered a safe and affirming environment in which to do so. When we are in session, I will offer you a supportive and non-judgmental space in which you can process your experiences, thoughts, and emotions. I am also aware that many of us do not even know how to begin doing this and that everyone’s therapeutic journey will look different. So treatment is often specialized for the needs of each client.
My Background and Approach
In both my personal experiences and professional work, I have seen how healing a supportive presence can be for persons who are struggling. I think it is a great privilege to work as a therapist and be able to offer that sort of presence to clients. I have clinical experience and training (play therapy, CBT, existentialism, spirituality) working with a wide range of age groups who have struggled with various issues in their lives, including complex trauma involving emotional, physical, and sexual abuse/assault, grief, family or relationship concerns, and school or career decisions. I look forward to working with you wherever you currently find yourself in life and to helping you heal and grow!
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I feel as though change is more than a destination that we reach after doing X, Y, and Z. Instead, I believe that it is an ongoing process that we can take an active role in directing. I believe this process involves people working through their past experiences in a positive way, finding acceptance in who and where they are in the present, and remaining hopeful for their future. This will not necessarily be a linear process, and we will all certainly face setbacks, but in doing these things I believe that we can change throughout our lives in ways that bring us peace and joy.
