About My Clients
Do you have an internal voice that cricitizes everything you do? Maybe it's a voice that's always worrying about the future. Is this voice difficult to tune out? Does it make your head spin, your heart race, sometimes causing shortness of breath or stomach somersaults? I bet it's preventing you from feeling fulfilled and content, and I'd like to help with that. Working together, I'll teach you skills to get relief from your negative self-talk so that you feel better emotionally and physically.
My Background and Approach
The skills I'll teach you are skills I've learned from my schooling, trainings, and personal experience. I don't recommend any tools I haven't personally tried and found to be effective. The skills I suggest will be tailored specifically to your problems, symptoms, and goals. Some clients do best with tools designed to shift their unhelpful thinking patterns, while others respond better to skills that help them calm their bodies. I'll provide you with resources like worksheets, videos, podcasts, and apps to help reinforce the skills you learn in our sessions, so that you have reminders of how to help yourself between our appointments. Eventually, you'll have all the skills you need to help yourself get relief from your thoughts and feelings.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that a large percentage of mental health issues in this country are caused or made worse by feeling alone and judged. Because of this, I strive to make sure my clients feel seen and valued for their authentic selves. Our connection is very important to me, and I often demonstrate empathy and vulnerability to role model authentic communication. One of my goals is for our relationship to feel authentic and secure, because I believe the therapeutic relationship can be healing in and of itself.
