Welcome. I’m glad you are here. Whether it be your first or twenty-fifth time engaging therapy, there is always risk in saying, “I know there something more.” So you find yourself, here. Bless that longing. I believe that in taking a risk to engage in therapy we create space for restoration and healing to occur.
Often in life we find ourselves on a different trajectory than we imagined. Instead of the life we envisioned we can find ourselves stuck in a place of desperation, enveloped in various states such as depression, anxiety, anger, grief, desire for control, guilt and/or feelings of isolation. Those are the parts of you that are most welcome in my therapy office.
Because, of course, just as we tend to our external world (ex: mowing our lawn, changing the oil in our car, tuning an instrument), we must also pay attention to our internal world, which is a vast landscape of stories waiting to be explored. This work takes intentionality, bravery and curiosity. And above all, it was not meant to be done alone. Your “yes” to showing up is your declaration of hope. And where there is hope, there is freedom.
