Professional Statement
Welcome! I just want to take a moment and recognize that if you’re here, you’re ready for change. Honestly, you’ve already done most of the work right there! As a strength-based therapist, I help identify strengths and positive shifts in patterns that can be used to create and maintain desired change. Most of all, I am here to remind you that desiring – or even needing – change does not mean there is something lacking or broken in you! I deeply value peoples’ ability to be honest and kind to themselves so they can recognize when change is needed, but also forgive themselves for having struggled… because struggling is human.
We all struggle, we all make mistakes, and we all have been in a place where we may not have presented as our best selves. Things in life can be difficult and we may lose sight of our importance and value in this life. I want you to know that I am here to remind you that you matter and that you are so much stronger than you realize or may give yourself credit for. I am here to help you recognize detrimental patterns that were once helpful and no longer serve a purpose, and also find strengths that you can utilize to help you live a fulfilling life that you are proud of.
Together we will explore the motivations behind the patterns that currently get in your way, so you can begin your journey to where you deserve to be. Come in knowing you can be whatever you need to be and that I am just here to help you get where you want to be. I believe it is essential to find a therapist that you feel you can connect and work well with.
