My role as a therapist is to help clients discover the powerful and creative resources within them that can heal and transform many of their difficulties. I believe that as we connect more with this inner self, we are better able to experience greater health, emotional well-being, and fulfillment in our lives.
My work begins with creating a safe, collaborative relationship in which clients can identify their goals and we can discuss the best methods for achieving them. The therapeutic approaches I use are tailored to clients’ unique needs. We examine any thoughts, beliefs, feelings or behaviors that may undermine feeling more loving, serene and empowered. By understanding and accepting how habitual patterns may have served us, we can begin to heal and transform past experiences, and choose more effective ways of responding in the present. We will also look at the role biological and external circumstances may play, and develop skills for addressing these factors as well.
Along with my training, I bring warmth, insight and humor to this process, as well as a deep respect for my clients’ ability to heal themselves, drawing upon their own strengths, life experience and other resources.
