Therapy style

For me, participating in therapy means being captain of your team and taking responsibility for your wellness. Therapy involves hard work, vulnerability, and curiosity which blossoms from a safe space created by both of us. My role as a therapist is to be a team player as you move forward. I will offer compassion, concrete tools, and (sometimes) humor to support you in taking on the captain role. As captain, your job is to practice skills with curiosity and continuously commit to the hard work of being boldly you. That work continues beyond therapy as well. All of you are welcome on the journey forward.
