She also helps her clients recognize how unresolved family and relationship conflicts may affect their emotional well being.

Message to clients

I believe YOU are the expert of your own life, and my job is to help you find the answers you are searching for from deep within yourself. You guide the pace of the therapy sessions, we can discuss what you did over the past week, what is currently stressing you out, or even what you’ve accomplished today. Therapy doesn’t always have to be able delving into the depths of your childhood experiences and painful memories, it can just be about improving your day to day interactions and perceptions in the here and now. You’re driving this plane, and I’m just your copilot.

Choosing to seek out therapy can be a very scary decision. After all, you’re expected to pour your heart and soul out to this complete stranger and leaves you feeling vulnerable. However, sometimes not having an emotional investment in someone allows you to be more open and honest with not only the therapist, but with yourself. Sometimes life can get hectic and you can be pulled in a million different directions, that you neglect your own well being. Choosing to go to therapy is choosing to focus on yourself for 45 minutes each time you go. Whether you choose to only attend 3 sessions, or you can attend weekly. I’ll be honest, working on yourself is not always pretty, but it’s worth it. You’re worth it.
