I recognize and understand that sometimes life knocks us down or throws us a curveball. Every now and then it can make it hard to get out of bed, ignoring our everyday responsibilities. Sometimes it can make us very anxious, worrying all the time if the decisions we're making are the right ones. Making difficult transitions in life (i.e. what college to go to, what job to accept and am I in the right relationship) can be stressful. Therapy is a great opportunity to get a new perspective, to increase self-esteem and to feel more confident in the decisions we are making and reframing those automatic negative thoughts. I know that asking for help is a difficult process. It can be scary to trust another adult with your secrets, past traumas and current struggles. I know that you are not taking this decision lightly. Please know that I will be there for you, through every step of the way. I will help guide you and provide a safe space for you to express yourself. You may ask, "What should I expect in sessions"? I will always do my absolute best to support you along your therapeutic journey as your therapist. I like for my sessions to be very laid back, comfortable and friendly. I believe in establishing therapeutic boundaries however I also believe in being ourselves in session, laughing and doing the hard work together.
