My Approach — Perspective is everything
As a therapist….
Countless hours engaging with clients and delving into their personal struggles have taught me valuable lessons. Pain is inescapable, but how we respond to our pain defines our reality.Â
Emotions are natural, but most of us spend either too much time focusing on how we feel or ignoring our feelings completely, both having the similar effect of deepening our problems or creating new ones.
Anxiety is the real pandemic, and fear is somewhere to be found underneath every frustration and negative thought.
But that is not all.
We have an ongoing struggle.
-
An inner voice that is often critical
-
Feeling selfish for honoring our own needs
-
Ignoring our feelings or getting overwhelmed by them
-
Hanging on to a relationship that makes us sad, scared, or angry
-
Allowing the behaviors and feelings of others to influence how we feel about ourselves
When our lives have purpose and we better understand why we are here (both individually and collectively) we can begin to make sense of the unfair, unjust and randomness of the ever-changing and sometimes crazy world.  Â
Out with the old – in with the new.
You can cultivate change, improve your mental health and move forward with a new perspective. We can do it together.
Together, we will address any or all aspects of your life.
