Deciding to come to Therapy

Counseling is for All
Life can be tough sometimes. And when it gets that way, it can be a struggle to cope well, and it may become difficult to enjoy the life you have. Life may simply have thrown you a curve ball or you may be trying to heal old wounds, or even level up.
Working through these things, making the changes, and growing can be challenging at times. But one thing is for certain, you don't need to do it alone, and having support and a sounding board are completely worth it.
Therapy can help
- When we aren't coping well or doing our best
- When we want to "level up"
- When we are struggling in our relationships
- When we don't feel like our-self anymore
- When things feel out of control
- When we notice we are tired or burned out
- When we notice we are crying a lot or sad
- When our sleep is messed up
- With building personal or professional growth
- When we want more out of life
- When we want to make a change
- When we don't know where to start
We will do this Together

The Building and Upkeep of Therapy

My 4 Pillars of Therapy
A solid therapeutic relationship - With a focus on fostering a therapeutic foundation built on safety, integrity, mutual trust, teamwork, and connection, a good fit eases the difficult work.
Relatable warmth, equality, and comfort - It's like spending time with a confidant. This means, I sit on a couch and kick off my shoes too. I provide a well stocked beverage and snack nook, keep several pillows and soft blankets within reach, and decorate the office with sentimental family pieces and old cozy home comforts.
Individual personalized care - While I'm always authentically me, the approaches and techniques I use are combined and tailored to you. We work together to create a plan that fits your unique situation and personality best. Your on-going feedback helps me make sure sessions are beneficial. I'm willing to adjust approaches, techniques, and style if needed within my professional scope and abilities.
Engaging sessions - You won't get bored here. I will counsel, teach, guide, listen to, and support you. You may laugh, cry, get angry, dig deep, be challenged, have days where we watch video clips, do in-session exercises, meditate, or even sit in silence so you can just breathe. It all depends on what you need. But no matter what, I will always engage you.
