Many clients entering therapy wonder, “How can only talking help me?” The increased sense of well-being we gain in therapy is more than just a worded experience.

Trauma, big or small, can rob us of the well-being and self-agency we need to lead the life we want. I offer trauma-informed therapy designed for deep transformational change. Beyond 'tools', beyond 'insight', trauma therapy changes how we feel from the inside out, leading to true, permanent change.

Therapy is an important exchange that aims to help make use of our mindful and experiential wisdom. It offers resources and new ways of being to turn seemingly impossible situations such as life transitions, trauma, employment-based or relational conflict and injustice into ones in which we can find integration and dignity.

Creative, accomplished people often feel a sense of emptiness, and struggle with relationships. An event or problem may spark questions and conflicts about identity and what your purpose may be; or, you may wonder how to connections and live a more fulfilled life. Speaking honestly and being heard can foster self-enrichment and discovery.

Starting therapy is a big step. You may have feelings of anxiety, depression, grief, or disconnection with others; you may struggle with work or family. Whatever the matter, psychotherapy can be a way to implement change, a way to generate a better understanding of yourself and your place in the world.

Maybe you want change, or change is happening where you wish it weren’t. Or you’re striving to reach your potential, and something is in your way. Perhaps you simply don’t want to struggle anymore.

Everyone struggles with something, even if they don’t show it. Struggling alone is no way to live! And there is no shame in needing help, as humans don’t thrive alone. Psychotherapy can help you find your way to a greater sense of self and wellbeing.

Perhaps you have been feeling dissatisfied or stuck in a rut; or you may be thinking that there must be more to life, or feeling overwhelmed by life’s inevitable challenges. Starting the process of therapy can be a powerful step towards changing your life.

Consider what brought you here. Are you worried about the future? Relationships suffer when we feel dissatisfied, lonely, or lost. Do you feel misunderstood? That can leave us anxious or angry.We can bring awareness to the beliefs guiding our lives and create greater connection to ourselves and others through the honest conversation therapy offers.

Talking to friends or family is different from speaking with a therapist. With a therapist, you connect to strengths you may have lost along the way; you develop the capacity to calm and regulate your nervous system.

“There is nothing so stable as change.” –Bob Dylan Change is inevitable. This can be frightening to acknowledge, but the ability to think, feel, and connect in new ways brings excitement that can be greater than fear.

Are you carrying the weight of emotional pain? You don't have to bear this burden alone. Together, we can lighten your load and embark on a journey towards healing and growth. Taking the first step is a courageous act. By choosing to seek therapy, you're investing in your well-being.
