Therapy is a safe space to explore and understand our questions, and be unburdened from the weights that hold us down.
Life does not come with an instruction manual. Figuring out how to live and to be authentic, cope with the hurts and struggles life throws at us, and learn how to live the best life we can is each of our task in this life. We can’t do this alone, but oftentimes we feel unmoored, as if we don’t have the supports we need to cope and to manage. We all need help from time to time, or most of the time. Sometimes our needs and struggles are more than we can handle, even with the help of friends and family. Therapy provides a safe place to ask the questions that scare us, to figure out the things that don’t make sense, to find connection in our loneliness, and healing from our hurts. Therapy helps us to find the things that are blocking our ability to feel good and to be authentic, to accept who we are and strive to be our best self. It is a place to find healing and acceptance, and to shed the internal burdens that bind us. Therapy helps us to tell our story and shape it, to be our authentic selves and take charge of our lives. My approach as a therapist is to provide warm and attentive listening, unconditional positive regard, gentle honesty and encouragement, as I join with you in the project of telling and understanding your story, and feeling your best.
