How do I facilitate healing?

My approach to counseling is grounded in the belief that every individual has the capacity for healing and change and the therapeutic relationship is a powerful tool for facilitating this process.

​

I bring to your therapy the knowledge that your past, social support, physical health and cultural background all impact what brings you here. 

 

My approach works best with people who are committed to the process, open to exploring the hard parts of themselves, and willing to do the work needed to heal and experience change. I value the time we are able to work together whether it is short-term support or long-term therapy. I consider my role in therapy as a collaborator first and navigator second. No matter where the therapy journey goes, you have the autonomy for choice, but I can be direct when needed.
