The work of finding a compatible therapist can feel daunting, and I am honored to be considered as someone who can accompany you on your journey.
I have found that a lot of us suffer from the oppression of the inner critic that exists within us. It tells you things like, “You can’t handle what’s happening to you right now” and “You can’t trust yourself or your experience.”
I deeply believe that is a lie.
My goal as your therapist is to partner with you so that you may uncover the inner critic and understand how it got there. Together, we will lovingly move it aside to discover the authentic you that’s always been there — the you that took the initiative to find me.
Welcome.
To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
