First of all, I am NOT your typical psychotherapist.
I'm pretty casual. I wear jeans and the occasional t-shirt to the office. Makeup went out the window when Covid hit. I have a dry sense of humor and sarcasm is my second language.
I like to sprinkle "f*ck" into my everyday vocab like little bits of colorful confetti. Feel free to add to the fun.
I believe that life is short and no one has time for beating around the bush. Therefore, I don’t sugar coat things, but I also won't force you to take steps you're not ready for.
I love working with people who want to do the work.
The people I work best with prioritize their sessions. You block out your session time on your calendar so nothing gets in the way of our time together (I realize some things can't be avoided).
My ideal clients understand that their session does not come with a crystal ball or things getting better magically overnight. Even when the work is hard, you're committed to doing it because you know that things have to change.
Change takes time.
I can't do the work for you, but I will walk beside you every step of the way.
This work is important.
YOU are important.
For the. first session we're going to spend time getting to know each other. We're going to talk about what brings you to therapy right now and your goals. You might be a little nervous coming in, but it's okay. I'm easy to talk to and you're ready to do this work.
